Joyce LeLEAUX

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court affirmed summary judgment for the Hamshire‑Fannett Independent School District and its bus driver, holding that the school district’s sovereign immunity was not waived because Monica LeLeaux’s injury did not arise from the operation or use of a school bus, and that the driver, as a professional employee, is statutorily immune. Justices Cook and Doggett dissented, arguing that a factual issue remained on whether the injury arose from the bus’s use.
