Judge rejects attempts to toss indictments against Texas AG Ken Paxton, keeps April trial on course
HOUSTON — Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton remains on track to be tried for felony fraud this spring after the presiding judge shot down his attempts to have the charges thrown out. During a Friday court hearing in Houston, Harris County District Court Judge Andrea Beall rejected Paxton’s arguments that his right to a speedy trial had been violated. Beall’s decision means that, barring another unexpected delay, Paxton’s securities fraud trial will kick off on April 15.
