OPINION
WILLIAM J. BOYCE, Justice.
Elbert Johnson appeals an order granting a plea to the jurisdiction in favor of appellees, the City of Bellaire and Rosa Larson (collectively, the “City”). See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem.Code Ann. § 51.014(a)(8) (Vernon 2008) (permitting interlocutory appeal from an order that “grants or denies a plea to the jurisdiction by a governmental unit”). Johnson contends that the trial court erred by granting the City’s plea to the jurisdiction based on governmental immunity. We reverse and remand.
