Description
The Friona Independent School District (FISD), Jim Parker, Kenny Austin, Mike Scott, Hayden Merket, Don Carthel, Alan Monroe, Danny Black, Joe Santellana, Jayson Grimsley, and Lorraine Anthony, in their official capacities as trustees of the FISD Board of Trustees (Trustees) appeal from an order granting D.T. King, Jr., Cynthia K. King, and N. J. K. (the Kings) a preliminary injunction. Through the courts edict, FISD and its Trustees were enjoined from "directly or indirectly preventing N. J. K. from playing on, and participating as a member of, the baseball team of Friona High School, or from dismissing him, removing him, or excluding him . . . from the [same] baseball team . . . ." The appellate issues before us involve questions of jurisdiction and abused discretion. According to the FISD and its Trustees, the trial court lacked jurisdiction to grant the injunction because the Kings had not exhausted their administrative remedies. As to the matter of abused discretion, the court purportedly erred because 1) no evidence supported the finding that the Kings had a probable right of recovery viz their equal protection claim, 2) no evidence supported the finding that the Kings would suffer imminent or irreparable harm, and 3) the preliminary injunction granted the Kings the relief to which they could be entitled upon a final hearing on the merits. For the reasons that follow, we reverse.
