Ltts Charter School, Inc. D/b/a Universal Academy, Petitioner v. C2 Construction, Inc., Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that an open‑enrollment charter school qualifies as a "governmental unit" under the Tort Claims Act, permitting it to take an interlocutory appeal of a denied plea to the jurisdiction. The Court reversed the Court of Appeals and remanded for further proceedings on the school's immunity claim. Justice GUZMAN dissented, arguing that such schools are not governmental units and that the majority improperly addressed immunity issues.
