Texas attorney general Ken Paxton wins temporary reprieve from lawsuit
The Texas supreme court has agreed to temporarily halt state attorney general Ken Paxton’s scheduled testimony in a whistleblower lawsuit, a case that lies at the heart of the impeachment charges brought against him in 2023.
Mr Paxton had urged the all-Republican court to block his deposition scheduled for Thursday morning, and the court agreed to stop the meeting while it considers the merits of his request.
