State university professor brought retaliation action against university, Board of Regents, university president, and former acting vice president under Taxpayer Protection and False Claims Act (TPFCA). The trial court dismissed claims. Professor appealed.
The Court of Appeals held that:
- University, Board, and president and former acting vice president in their official capacities were entitled to sovereign immunity, but
- Professor was not required to obtain Attorney General’s approval before filing suit against president and former acting vice president in their individual capacities.
