LAREDO POLICE DEPARTMENT,                     §                                 Clerk
AND THE CITY OF LAREDO, TEXAS                 §    WEBB COUNTY, TEXAS

                                   NOTICE OF APPEAL

TO THE HONORABLE JUDGE OF SAID COURT:

       The Defendant, City of Laredo, Texas, gives notice of its desire to appeal the trial
court’s Order on the City of Laredo’s Third Plea to the Jurisdiction signed on March 2, 2014.
This Order is attached to this Notice. This appeal is taken to the Fourth Court of Appeals
for the State of Texas, sitting in San Antonio, Texas. Section 51.014(a)(8) of the Civil
Practices and Remedies Code grants this Court interlocutory jurisdiction over “an
interlocutory order of a district court” that “grants or denies a plea to the jurisdiction by a
governmental unit as that term is defined in Section 101.001." Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code
Ann. § 51.014(a)(8) (West Supp. 2011). The trial court denied the City of Laredo’s plea to
the jurisdiction in which it challenged the trial court’s subject-matter jurisdiction over the
case in which the appealed-from order was issued.

                                           Respectfully submitted,
