Description
This is a summary judgment case involving whether a school districts trustees may adopt a local increment salary schedule lower than the prior years after the school year has already begun and first months salaries have already been paid at the prior years rate. Following a suit to enjoin approval of the districts tax rate by certain teachers, principals and administrators, joined by other teachers, librarians, and assorted district employees as intervenors, the trial court concluded the school board acted within its legal discretion as a matter of law under the written contracts with the school district employees, granted the School Districts motion for summary judgment, and denied a motion for partial summary judgment as to liability filed by twenty-six teachers and two librarians. These twenty-eight, whom we shall collectively call the Teachers, appealed. The court of appeals affirmed the judgment, one justice dissenting. 746 S.W.2d 524. We hold that fact issues as to estoppel and ratification of the local increment terms of the contracts were raised by the Teachers precluding summary judgment in favor of the School District, but that the Teachers motion sought interlocutory partial relief only and their summary judgment motion and evidence cannot support rendition of a final summary judgment. We reverse the judgment of the court of appeals and remand this cause to the trial court for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
