TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

JUDGMENT RENDERED DECEMBER 8, 2016

NO. 03-14-00375-CV

Auspro Enterprises, LP, Appellant v. Texas Department of Transportation, Appellee

APPEAL FROM 345TH DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY BEFORE CHIEF JUSTICE ROSE, JUSTICES PEMBERTON AND FIELD REVERSED AND RENDERED ON MOTION FOR REHEARING – OPINION BY CHIEF JUSTICE ROSE

This is an appeal from the judgment signed by the district court on March 17, 2013. We deny the Department’s motion for rehearing and order that the opinion and judgment dated August 26, 2016, are withdrawn. Having reviewed the record and the parties’ arguments, the Court holds that there was reversible error in the district court’s judgment. We therefore reverse the district court’s judgment and render judgment severing Subchapters B and C from the Texas Highway Beautification Act as unconstitutional content-based restrictions on speech. The appellee shall pay all costs relating to this appeal, both in this Court and the court below.
