Through his attorney, Abbott said the court needs to get to work on this because of recent developments including last week’s Texas House Administration vote on fines for quorum breaking; Wu says no way Jose
With the
case pretty stale and just as silly as it was last year, Gov. Greg Abbott
on Thursday told the Texas Supreme Court that recent developments
– notably last week’s Texas House committee vote to impose fines
on quorum breakers – should prompt justices to take a fresh look at throwing
House Democratic Caucus Chair Gene Wu from office altogether.
Remember
that? Yeah, it’s easy to forget.

Trial set to start Nov 9th after State District Court Judge Meachum partially blocked Hancock from moving forward; the bench ruling is limited to the 6 plaintiffs
It was a
bit of a spectacle in a Travis County courtroom Monday morning as Sen. Royce
West jousted with a lawyer from the Office of the Attorney General
over Acting Comptroller Kelly Hancock’s unilateral decision late last
year to kick minorities and women out of the Historically Underutilized
Business program.
The Texas
Senate Democratic Caucus and plaintiffs including business owners who have
described “having the rug pulled out from under us” were successful today in partially blocking Hancock from moving forward after the judge in the case issued a temporary injunction and set a trial for this fall. November 9 is the trial date. The injunction is limited to the 6 plaintiffs.
