The document is a motion for rehearing submitted by Brazoria County in the Supreme Court of Texas regarding a case involving Glenn Colquitt. The County argues that the Supreme Court should affirm the decision of the Court of Appeals, which concluded that the trial court lacked jurisdiction over the lawsuit due to the Petitioner's failure to comply with notice provisions required under the Texas Tort Claims Act. The motion emphasizes legislative intent behind amendments to section 311.034 of the Texas Government Code, asserting that pre-suit notice is a jurisdictional requirement and contending that the Supreme Court's previous opinion misinterprets this intent.
