City of Fort Worth v. Davidson

Opinion of the Court

SPEER, J.

We think counsel have mistaken the effect of our holding in this case. We have not considered a case against the city based upon the negligence of a police officer. The opinion is not capable of the interpretation that it overrules or questions the long line of decisions holding that a city will not be liable for the negligence of its police officers or other governmental agent.

We recommend that the motion for rehearing be overruled.
