| Friday, January 14, 2022, Houston, Texas – Jared Woodfill of Woodfill Law Firm filed an Amicus Brief on behalf of Steven Hotze, M.D. and numerous Republican elected officials supporting Attorney General Ken Paxton’s Motion for Rehearing in the case of State of Texas v. Zena Collins Stephens. Paxton’s Motion for Rehearing was filed on December 30, 2021. The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, composed of 9 Republicans, issued an 8-1 decision on December 15, 2021 that the Texas Attorney General lacks the authority to independently prosecute a crime in state district court, specifically violations of the Texas Election Code (TEC). Dr. Hotze stated, “There is a huge problem with organized voter fraud in counties controlled by the pro-Communist Democrats. These counties are located in the major metropolitan areas of Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio. The district attorneys in each one of these areas are Democrats who benefit from the voter fraud schemes.” (KEEP READING) |
