Texas Supreme Court Halts Depositions in Ken Paxton Whistleblower Case

The Texas Supreme Court has temporarily halted depositions in the whistleblower case against Attorney General Ken Paxton, giving the parties until Feb. 29 to respond with broader legal arguments. This decision came shortly after former President Donald Trump called on the court to end the case. The case involves allegations that Paxton improperly fired former top deputies after they reported him to the FBI for allegedly abusing his office to help a wealthy friend and donor. Paxton's office had fought the order for depositions, and Trump and his allies had pressured the court to side with Paxton.

"Cuomo Accusers Depose in Ongoing Lawsuits Amid Legal Battles with Letitia James"

A judge has ruled that former Gov. Andrew Cuomo's lawyers can depose his accusers and request documents in ongoing lawsuits related to sexual harassment allegations. The judge's order comes after months of legal battles between Cuomo and his accusers, granting some clarity in the complex web of lawsuits. Cuomo has issued subpoenas to 36 people and government entities involved in the scandals, seeking evidence to challenge the allegations. The judge has limited some of Cuomo's evidence requests, particularly those related to private sexual history, and Cuomo is also pursuing records through the state's Freedom of Information law.

Texas AG Ken Paxton and Aides Ordered to Testify Under Oath in Whistleblower Case

A judge has ordered Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and three top aides to sit for depositions in a whistleblower lawsuit against him. The whistleblowers, former top deputies who sued Paxton in 2020, alleged that he improperly fired them after they reported him to the FBI for abusing his office to help a wealthy friend and donor. Paxton's office had previously attempted to settle the case for $3.3 million, but the Texas House rejected the use of taxpayer dollars for the settlement. The depositions will provide an opportunity for the whistleblowers to gather evidence and seek accountability from Paxton and his aides.

The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that Arizona's top Republican leaders, House Speaker Ben Toma and Senate President Warren Petersen, must sit for depositions in an ongoing federal lawsuit challenging state voting rights. The lawmakers will be required to explain, under oath, their support for state laws that require proof of citizenship to vote, which civil rights groups argue are racially discriminatory. The court's decision rejects claims that the depositions would violate legislative privilege. The case could have significant implications for the 2024 presidential election in the swing state of Arizona.

Supreme Court Upholds Depositions in Arizona Voting Lawsuit

The Supreme Court has rejected a request by Arizona's House Speaker and Senate President to avoid depositions in an ongoing lawsuit challenging two state voting laws as racially discriminatory. The lawmakers argued that being deposed would violate legislative privilege, but the justices rejected their request. Last year, Arizona passed voting bills that require proof of citizenship and change rules for voter roll removal, leading to legal challenges from the Justice Department, Democratic National Committee, and voting groups. The plaintiffs sought to depose the lawmakers to understand the Legislature's intent in enacting the laws, and the lawmakers' intervention in the lawsuit waived their privilege, according to the plaintiffs.
