Texas Supreme Court June 1, 2007, 05-0629 (Tellez v. City of Socorro)

PER CURIAM.

Subject-matter jurisdiction “involves a court’s power to hear a case.”

U.S. v. Cotton,

535 U.S. 625, 630, 122 S.Ct. 1781, 152 L.Ed.2d 860 (2002);

Ltd. v. Link,

925 S.W.2d 591, 594 (Tex.1996). Because the trial court had power to hear this appeal of a zoning board’s decision, we hold the court of appeals erred in dismissing it for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction.
