| 04/27/2022 | Supreme Court requests parties to file additonal briefs | |
Supplemental briefing requested: "The Supreme Court of Texas requests that the parties file supplemental briefs addressing the following questions: 1. Is the State of Texas a proper defendant to a claim seeking a declaratory judgment that H.B. 1 and S.B. 4 violate Article III, Section 28 of the Texas Constitution and that H.B. 1 violates Article III, Section 26 of the Texas Constitution? Stated another way, are any plaintiff’s alleged injuries “traceable” to the “State’s” conduct (as opposed to a particular official’s or agency’s conduct) and redressable by an order that may be directed against the “State” (as opposed to a particular official or agency), as required to establish that plaintiff’s standing?
2. If the answer to the first question is no, is the defect curable; and if so, how?
The supplemental briefs are due no later than 5:00 p.m., Thursday, May 5, 2022."
