Description
Appellant, Ethio Express Shuttle Service, Inc., appeals the trial courts judgment dismissing its case for want of jurisdiction. On appeal, Ethio claims the trial court should not have granted the Citys plea to the jurisdiction, arguing alternatively that either (1) the City was not engaged in a proprietary function and therefore did not enjoy sovereign immunity, or (2) the Texas Tort Claims Act waived immunity. We affirm because the City was engaged in a governmental function when it regulated transportation to and from airports and because the causes of action Ethio alleged do not fall within the Acts limited waiver of immunity.
