Description
Three detention officers in the Travis County Sheriff's office were injured while performing their official duties. They brought suit seeking a declaratory judgment that article III, section 52e of the state constitution entitled them, as law-enforcement officers, to receive their full salary during their period of recovery. Sheriff Margo Frasier in her official capacity and Travis County (collectively Frasier) raised a plea to the jurisdiction, claiming that the constitutional provision is not self-enacting and did not waive sovereign immunity, or alternatively that the officers did not exhaust their administrative remedies or properly present their claims. The trial court denied the plea to the jurisdiction. On appeal Frasier presents four issues that allegedly deprive the trial court of jurisdiction to grant declaratory relief. We will affirm.
