Description
This is an interlocutory appeal of the denial of a plea to the jurisdiction. E. E. Lowrey Realty, Ltd. and the estate of E. E. Lowrey (collectively "Lowrey") brought suit against the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department and Doug Hammitt and Marvin C. Wills, Jr., employees of the Department, for fire damage to premises owned by Lowrey and leased by the Department to store a boat. Lowreys petition alleged that the negligence of the employees in installing lights on the boat caused a fire and that the Department breached its lease agreement by not compensating Lowrey for damages to the premises. The Department, Hammitt, and Wills filed pleas to the jurisdiction, contending that sovereign immunity bars Lowreys claims. The trial court overruled the plea.
