Texas Supreme Court
City of Dallas, Petitioner v. Olivia J. Carbajal, Respondent
May 7, 201053 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 715
Summary
The Texas Supreme Court held that a police report describing the cause of an accident does not give a governmental unit actual notice of its fault, and therefore the City of Dallas lacked actual notice required under the Texas Tort Claims Act, resulting in dismissal of the suit for lack of subject‑matter jurisdiction.
