Description
The Texas Department of Transportation ("TxDOT") brings this interlocutory appeal from a district court decision overruling its plea to the jurisdiction and rendering a partial summary judgment for the City of Sunset Valley ("Sunset Valley") in a suit for inverse condemnation. In three issues, TxDOT complains that the district court erred in denying its plea to the jurisdiction because (1) Sunset Valley lacks standing to sue for the physical taking of its streets, (2) Sunset Valley lacks standing to sue for any injuries that may result from the increased circuitry of travel and noise and light pollution caused by the highways expansion, and (3) TxDOT is immune from suit by virtue of the doctrine of sovereign immunity. We will affirm the district courts ruling.
