Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

JUDGMENT RENDERED MARCH 7, 2014

NO. 03-12-00625-CV

Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and Waste Control Specialists LLC, Appellants

v.

Sierra Club, Appellee

APPEAL FROM 98TH DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY BEFORE JUSTICES PURYEAR, PEMBERTON, AND ROSE REVERSED AND RENDERED -- OPINION BY JUSTICE ROSE

This is an appeal from the order signed by the trial court on September 17, 2012. Having

reviewed the record and the parties’ arguments, the Court holds that there was reversible error in

the district court’s order. Therefore, the Court reverses the district court’s order denying

TCEQ’s and WCS’s pleas to the jurisdiction and renders judgment dismissing Sierra Club’s

action for lack of jurisdiction. The appellee shall pay all costs relating to this appeal, both in this

Court and the court below.
