The City of Denton, Texas, Petitioners v. Michael Van Page, Respondents

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals, holding that the City of Denton is not liable for the dangerous condition of a storage building because it neither owned, occupied, controlled, nor created the condition, and therefore the Tort Claims Act does not waive governmental immunity. Justice Kilgarlin concurred, emphasizing that the majority's language should not be read to limit liability solely to owners or controllers.
