Appellant                                      Court

                                           §   of Tarrant County (236-323502-21)
V.
                                           §   January 24, 2024

TWANA SEYMORE, Appellee                    §   Amended Memorandum Opinion by
                                               Chief Justice Sudderth

                            AMENDED JUDGMENT

       Because this court has issued an amended memorandum opinion, we withdraw

our prior judgment dated December 7, 2023 and we substitute the following judgment

in its place.

       This court has considered the record on appeal in this case and holds that there

was error in the trial court’s judgment. It is ordered that the judgment of the trial

court denying TWC’s plea to the jurisdiction is reversed and we render a judgment

dismissing with prejudice Twana Seymore’s claims for failure to accommodate,
constructive discharge based on her disability, constructive discharge in retaliation for

her EEOC complaint, and race-based discrimination.

      It is further ordered that Seymore shall pay all costs of this appeal, for which let

execution issue.
