Description
Today we reaffirm that governmental immunity from suit defeats a trial courts subject matter jurisdiction and thus is properly asserted in a plea to the jurisdiction. Without considering the merits of the Texas Department of Transportations plea to the jurisdiction, the court of appeals in this case held otherwise and affirmed the trial courts denial of the Departments plea. 983 S.W.2d 90. We therefore reverse the court of appeals judgment and remand this cause to that court for proceedings consistent with this opinion.
