Texas Supreme Court

Richard Dewayne Proctor, Hugh Glen Osborn, John Yeates, and Dan Morales

July 3, 199841 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 1172

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that section 143.057(d) of the Civil Service Act does not violate the Texas Constitution either by impermissibly delegating legislative authority to private entities or by infringing the home‑rule city’s authority to discipline its police officers, and therefore reinstated the trial court’s judgment in favor of the officers.
