Wild Rose Rescue Ranch v. City of Whitehouse

The appellant argues that the trial court had subject matter jurisdiction to consider its constitutional challenge to a city ordinance. The appellant has shown no vested property right that would be implicated because it has no absolute right to use its property for a particular purpose, such as keeping animals in an animal shelter. The trial court's order is affirmed. Tyler Court of Appeals, No. 12-11-00371-CV, 07-11-2012.

OPINION

Wild Rose Rescue Ranch appeals the trial court’s order granting the City of Whitehouse’s plea to the jurisdiction. In three issues, Wild Rose argues that the trial court had subject matter jurisdiction to consider its constitutional challenge to a city ordinance, that it should have been allowed to present evidence at the hearing on the City’s plea to the jurisdiction, and that it should have been afforded an opportunity to amend its pleadings rather than the case being dismissed. We affirm.
