EN BANC ORDER ON ASSESSMENT OF APPELLATE COSTS
PER CURIAM.
On November 15, 2001, this Court issued an opinion, 73 S.W.3d 304, reversing the trial courts' denial of appellant's plea to the jurisdiction and rendered judgment dismissing appellees' claims for want of jurisdiction. Appellees have filed a motion requesting that we reconsider the assessment of appellate costs. In this Court's judgment, we ordered that all costs of appeal be paid by appellees. See Tex. R.App. P. 43.4.
Appellees contend that each party should have been liable for its own costs of appeal. In support of this contention, appellees rely on section 51.015 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code and Harris County Flood Control District v. PG & E, 35 S.W.3d 772 (Tex.App.-Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, pet dism'd w.o.j.). As in this case, PG & E involved an interlocutory appeal from the denial of a plea to the jurisdiction filed by a governmental unit, i.e., the Harris County Flood Control District. PG & E, 35 S.W.3d at 773; see also Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem.Code Ann. § 51.014(a)(8) (Vernon Supp.2002). In PG & E, we held as follows:
On rehearing, the District challenges the allocation of costs. The District is correct. Under Civil Practice and Remedies Code section 51.015, each party is liable for and is taxed its own costs of the appeal.
PG & E, 35 S.W.3d at 774. We now realize we misconstrued section 51.015 in PG & E, and, thus, we issue this en banc order.
Section 51.015 provides as follows:
In the case of an appeal brought pursuant to Section 51.014(6), if the order appealed from is affirmed, the court of appeals shall order the appellant to pay all costs and reasonable attorney fees of the appeal; otherwise, each party shall *185 be liable for and taxed its own costs of the appeal.
TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM.CODE ANN. § 51.015 (Vernon Supp.2002).[1] In turn, subsection 51.014(a)(6) states the following:
(a) A person may appeal from an interlocutory order of a district court, county court at law, or county court that:
(6) denies a motion for summary judgment that is based in whole or in part upon a claim against or defense by a member of the electronic or print media, acting in such capacity, or a person whose communication appears in or is published by the electronic or print media, arising under the free speech or free press clause of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, or Article 1, Section 8, of the Texas Constitution, or Chapter 73[.]
Id. § 51.014(a)(6) (Vernon Supp.2002)[2] (emphasis added).
Accordingly, each party is liable for its own costs of appeal under section 51.015 only in cases involving an interlocutory appeal from a denial of a motion for summary judgment based in whole or in part on a claim against or defense by a mediarelated party involving issues of freedom of the press or freedom of speech, and then only when the order denying the motion for summary judgment is not affirmed. Section 51.015 does not apply to any other type of interlocutory appeal, including an appeal by a governmental unit from the denial of a plea to the jurisdiction as we have in this case, and as was involved in PG & E. We therefore disavow Harris County Flood Control District v. PG & E, 35 S.W.3d 772 (Tex.App.-Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, pet dism'd w.o.j.) to the extent that it holds otherwise.
We deny appellees motion requesting reallocation of appellate costs.
It is so ORDERED.
Justice HEDGES concurs in the result only.
