A coalition of State Attorneys General has filed an amicus brief in defense of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and his top deputy, amid allegations of a revenge plot by the Texas State Bar. This legal support comes as Paxton faces criticism for his handling of a separate case involving property compensation disputes in Texas, which he claimed as a victory despite the U.S. Supreme Court ruling unanimously 9-0 against his position. Critics, including attorneys for a Texas man involved in the lawsuit and public commentators, have accused Paxton of misrepresenting the Supreme Court's decision.
