OPINION

W. KENNETH LAW, Chief Justice.

We withdraw our opinion and judgment dated November 28, 2007, and substitute this opinion and judgment in its place. We overrule the appellant’s motion for rehearing.

Constable Gary Griffin appeals from the trial court’s judgment against him in his suit for declaratory judgment asking that the court find that appellees (collectively “the County Commissioners Court” 2 ) lacked authority to transfer funding for the Williamson County Mental Health Unit from his office to that of the Williamson County Sheriff. We will affirm the trial court’s judgment.
