JUDGMENT

This court has considered the record on appeal in this case and holds that there

was error in the trial court’s judgment. The judgment is modified to specifically state

that the referenced Bates-stamped pages are attached to the judgment. We have

attached those pages to this opinion as Exhibit B. We further modify the judgment to

correct a typographical error by deleting the italicized portion of the judgment and

replacing that paragraph with the following paragraph: IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, ADJUDGED[,] AND DECREED that it is equitable and just under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. § 37.009 that Defendants be awarded their reasonable and necessary attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in this matter as follows, with all attorneys’ fees and costs being taxed to Plaintiff: . . . .

It is ordered that the judgment of the trial court is affirmed as modified.

It is further ordered that appellant Carroll Independent School District shall

pay all of the costs of this appeal, for which let execution issue.
