*501On Appellant’s Motion for Rehearing
HUGHES, Justice.
Appellant contends that under the statutes set out in our original opinion, particularly subsection (c), Sec. 2, art. 8280-107, that there was a statutory duty on appellee to give warning that the flood gates were to be opened and that for a violation of this duty an action will lie on behalf of those for whom the statute was intended to protect. 1 C.J.S. Actions § 9 b, p. 991; 1 Am.Jur., p. 420, and other authorities are cited in support of this contention.
We agree with appellant’s position and with the law stated in the cited authorities.
We simply believe, and so held, that ap-pellee is immune from liability for breach of either a statutory or common-law duty.
The motion is overruled.
Motion overruled.
