Third-Party Defendant-Appellant Risk Management Division (Risk Management) brings this interlocutory appeal under NMSA 1978, Section 39-3-4 (Repl. Pamp. 1991), challenging the trial court's denial of its motion for summary judgment.

Pamp. 1994), which governs Risk Management's duties, and the Tort Claims Act, NMSA 1978, §§ 41-4-1 to -29 (Repl. Pamp. 1989 & Cum. Supp. 1994), Risk Management is required to reimburse the County for any attorney fees for which it may be liable in the underlying action. We reverse. I. FACTS
