Supreme Court of Texas

In a wrongful death and survival case brought by respondent, a deceased inmate's daughter, petitioner's interlocutory appeal from a denial of its plea to the jurisdiction is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction, and the court of appeals' denial is vacated, where respondent's nonsuit deprived the court of appeals of jurisdiction.
