OPINION

EVELYN V. KEYES, Justice.

Appellants Anthony R. Jackson and James Núñez filed suit against the City of Texas City and Debbie Leseo, in her capacity as city civil service director, (collectively, Texas City) seeking declaratory and injunctive relief related to their dismissal from the fire department. Jackson and Núñez alleged that Texas City violated their rights to appeal their dismissals under the Civil Service Act (the “Act”). In three issues, Jackson and Núñez argue that the trial court erred in granting Texas City’s plea to the jurisdiction.

We affirm.
