    The city of Denton did not violate the Texas Whistleblower Act when it fired two municipal power company employees who blew the whistle on a former Denton City Council member who leaked documents to the Denton Record-Chronicle, the Texas Supreme Court ruled Friday.

    In its 15-page opinion, the court ruled former council member Keely Briggs wasn’t acting on behalf of the city when she shared documents concerning the proposed construction of the Denton Energy Center, a natural gas power plant, with the Record-Chronicle reporter.
