Texas Ass'n of School Boards Risk Management Fund v. Benavides Independent School District

OPINION

Opinion by

KAREN ANGELINI, Justice.

The Texas Association of School Boards Risk Management Fund appeals the trial court’s denial of its plea to the jurisdiction. Because immunity from suit with respect to the contractual claims has been waived by chapter 271 of the Texas Local Government Code, we affirm the trial court’s order in part. However, because there has been no waiver of immunity from suit with respect to the tort claims, we reverse the trial court’s order in part and render judgment dismissing the tort claims against the Fund for want of jurisdiction.
