Texas Must File Response to Twitter by May 10 in Trump-Related Lawsuit

Texas has until May 10 to respond to Twitter’s request for a rehearing in the company’s lawsuit against Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton’s investigation into Twitter’s decision to suspend then-President Donald Trump for his actions linked to the Jan. 6 Capitol siege (see 2204120056), said the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals Tuesday in 21-15869. Twitter requested rehearing March 30 after a federal judge in California dismissed the lawsuit, calling it “premature.”
