El Paso Taxpayer Revolt – TEXAS SUPREME COURT DISMISSES CITY’S PETITION FOR REVIEW

Posted on October 5, 2023

On January 19 the City of El Paso filed a motion with the Texas Supreme Court to dismiss its petition for review, and I did not file a cross-petition for review nor did I oppose the motion.

On Friday, January 27, the Texas Supreme Court issued an order granting the City’s Unopposed Motion to Dismiss and dismissed the petition for review in Case No. 21-1105.
