 MICHAEL FLORES,                                   §              of El Paso County, Texas

                                Appellee.          §                (TC# 2019DCV2227)

                                        JUDGMENT

       The Court has considered this cause on the record and concludes the trial court’s judgment

should be affirmed in part and reversed and remanded in part. The trial court’s order denying

Appellant’s plea to the jurisdiction as to Appellee’s disability discrimination claim is affirmed and

we remand that claim for further proceedings consistent with this opinion. We reverse the trial

court’s order denying Appellant’s plea to the jurisdiction as to Appellee’s sex-discrimination and

retaliation claims and render judgment dismissing those claims.

       We further order that each party shall bear their own cost of appeal, for which let execution

issue. See Tex.R.App.P. 43.5. This decision shall be certified below for observance.

       IT IS ORDERED THIS 9TH DAY OF MARCH, 2023.

                                              LISA J. SOTO, Justice
