Ryder Integrated Logistics, Inc., Petitioner v. Fayette County, Texas, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that Ryder Integrated Logistics sufficiently alleged that the deputy sheriff's operation of his cruiser caused the collision, thereby invoking the waiver of sovereign immunity under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §101.021. The Court reversed the appellate court and remanded for further proceedings, also rejecting the County's arguments that the Move Over Act barred recovery and that the deputy's conduct was merely a condition rather than a cause.
