Description

IT IS ORDERED that appellant's motion for leave to file a petition for rehearing out of time is granted to the extent herewith explained. Joleewu, Ltd., asks us to reconsider that portion of our prior opinion which affirmed the dismissal of its claim against the City of Austin founded on Tex.Bus.Comm.Code § 27.01, covering fraud in real estate transactions. When the opinion was issued, no Texas cases had considered whether municipalities were immune from suit under this law, but a Texas court of appeals decision rendered shortly afterward suggested that immunity may not be a defense. Kerrville HRH, Inc. v. City of Kerrville, 803 S.W.2d 377, 382-83 (Tex.Ct.App.1990). Because we already have decided to remand this case, and our decision on sovereign immunity now appears open to question under Texas law, we VACATE that portion of our earlier opinion construing § 27.01 and REMAND that issue for further consideration by the trial court. Our prior ruling and judgment are otherwise unchanged.
