Texas Supreme Court clears Webster in election lawsuit case
The Texas Supreme Court has dismissed disciplinary charges against Brent Webster, the First Attorney General, regarding his involvement in the 2020 presidential election lawsuit.
This decision ends efforts by the State Bar of Texas to sanction Webster for participating in the legal challenge.
The suit alleged unfounded widespread voter fraud aimed at overturning election results.
The court previously deemed the lawsuit lacked standing, criticizing it for attempting to contest how other states conducted their elections.
The ruling also highlighted the necessity of allowing attorneys broad discretion in politically sensitive cases.
This judgment coincides with ongoing scrutiny of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who faces allegations of corruption and abuse of power, despite being acquitted by the Texas Senate in 2023.
