Description

This appeal arises from a dispute between appellant Richard Quimby, a licensed tow truck operator, and appellee Texas Department of Transportation ("TxDOT") concerning the construction and enforcement of a provision of the Texas Motor Carrier Rules and Regulations setting forth the requirements for the release of a motor vehicle from a vehicle storage facility ("VSF") to a tow truck operator. See 43 Tex. Admin. Code 18.92(a)(2) (1999). Quimby, alleging that TxDOT was refusing to "enforce the rule as written," sued TxDOT in district court for a declaratory judgment "declaring Section 18.92(a) (2) (F) of the Texas Motor Carrier Rules and Regulations as a valid and correct method for a licensed tow truck operator to obtain possession of motor vehicles from a [VSF]." See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. 37.004 (West 1997). The district court rendered such a judgment but did not agree with Quimbys interpretation of the rule. Quimby appeals in three issues requesting this Court to declare a different construction of the rule. We will affirm.
