No. 01-05-00333-CV.

263 S.W.3d 43 (2006)

CITY OF PASADENA, Appellant, v. James THOMAS, Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Texas, Houston (1st Dist.).

August 31, 2006.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Richard Risinger, Pasadena, TX, for Appellant.

Richard Morrison, III, Sugar Land, TX, Kenneth W. Burch, Gray, Burch & Haddad, Houston, TX, for Appellee.

Panel consists of Chief Justice RADACK and Justices ALCALA and BLAND.


OPINION

JANE BLAND, Justice.

The City of Pasadena appeals the trial court's order denying the City's plea to the jurisdiction of the court. The City maintains that it is immune from James Thomas's allegations of negligence and negligent instruction, as pleaded. We hold that Thomas's pleadings do not allege a claim in negligence for which governmental immunity is waived. We therefore reverse the order of the trial court.
