Trial Court Cause No. 2014-35653
APPELLEE HARRIS COUNTY’S NOTICE OF NEW LEAD COUNSEL
TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT OF APPEALS:
Pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 6.1, the undersigned
attorneys for Appellee Harris County file this notice of new lead counsel as
follows.
The above-captioned appeal involves two interlocutory orders signed by the
trial court. The first interlocutory order sustained Appellee Prine’s plea to the
jurisdiction and dismissed Appellants’ cross-claims or counterclaims against
Appellee Prine with prejudice. The second interlocutory order denied Appellants’
motion to dismiss Appellee Harris County’s interpleader suit against Appellants.
Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 6.1(c) provides that new lead counsel
may be designated by filing a notice, signed by the former and new lead attorney,
and stating the identification information of the new lead counsel. That is the
purpose of this notice.
The new lead counsel representing the Appellee, Harris County, in the
above-referenced appeals is as follows:
Keith A. Toler
Assistant County Attorney
1019 Congress, 15th Floor
Houston, Texas, 77002
Phone: (713) 274-5265
Fax: (713) 755-8924
Email: Keith.Toler@cao.hctx.net
State Bar No. 24088541
The designation of Brian Quintero as the lead counsel for Harris County in
this appeal should be removed and all future communication to lead counsel for
Harris County should be directed to Keith Toler.
Respectfully submitted,
