OPINION

Opinion by KAREN ANGELINI, Justice.

On behalf of their minor child, Kaelyn, Marcus Martinez and Mary Koog appeal the trial court's dismissal of their claim brought under the Texas Tort Claims Act ("TTCA"). We are presented with two issues on appeal: whether the TTCA's six-month notice requirement is a jurisdictional requirement and whether Kaelyn's minority tolls the notice requirement.
