Description
Prairie View A&M University (the "University") appeals a judgment granted in favor of Eddie Ray Brooks for injuries Brooks sustained while repairing a pipe on the Universitys campus. After conducting a legal sufficiency review of the evidence introduced at trial, we conclude there is no evidence that the University had actual knowledge of the dangerous condition that resulted in Brooks injury. For this reason, Brooks cannot establish a waiver of sovereign immunity under the Texas Tort Claims Act ("TTCA"), and the trial court lacked jurisdiction to enter judgment. We accordingly reverse the judgment of the trial court and render judgment dismissing the case for lack of jurisdiction.
