Legal Battle Over Texas Governor's Pardon of Daniel Perry Likely to Fail

Legal experts believe that Travis County District Attorney José Garza's attempt to overturn Governor Greg Abbott's pardon of Daniel Perry, who was convicted of murdering a Black Lives Matter protester, is unlikely to succeed. The unprecedented legal move faces significant challenges, including a court composed entirely of Republican judges. While some experts commend Garza's innovative approach, they question the legal grounds for challenging the governor's well-established authority to grant pardons.
