Texas Supreme Court
Clara Dewitt, Petitioners v. Harris County, Texas, Respondent
September 14, 1995904 S.W.2d 650
Summary
The Texas Supreme Court held that Harris County is not liable under section 101.021(2) of the Texas Tort Claims Act for the negligence of an employee who is protected by official immunity, and affirmed the Court of Appeals' judgment. Justice Gammage dissented, arguing that the county should be liable despite the employee's immunity.
