A woman who had asked a court for an order allowing her to get an abortion under the medical emergency exception to Texas' near-total ban will leave the state to receive care while the state's highest court considers her case, her lawyers said in a court filing on Monday. Lawyers for Kate Cox said in a filing with the Texas Supreme Court that she nonetheless wished to continue her lawsuit. A lower court last week issued a restraining order allowing her to obtain an abortion, but the state Supreme Court put it on hold while it considers an appeal by Attorney General Ken Paxton, a Republican.

Among the many things the Attorney General of Texas IS When suspended Attorney General Ken Paxton was elected to his third term last year, he was already in legal trouble. He was indicted on securities fraud charges in 2015, which is a first-degree felony punishable by up to 99 years in prison. Paxton pleaded not guilty but has so far avoided trial. (Spectrum News One)… A Republican-controlled Texas House committee filed 20 articles of impeachment against GOP Attorney General Ken Paxton, ranging from bribery to abuse of public trust, and he was suspended from office Saturday after the chamber voted to impeach.(PBS News Hour)…
Attorney General of Texas Ken Paxton IS NOT a Medical Doctor and certainly IS NOT a PEDIATRICIAN, but he like oh so many repulsive Republicans pretends to play the role of Doctor, Judge, Jury, and GOD!
Ken Paxton has engaged in the worst of Republican Politics, that of playing the Moral and Value King, one whose own shit stinks, but tries to cover that up by playing the role of Jesus Christ. Sadly within the world of Repulsive Republicans, this CON works wonders, with the valueless voters who thrive on hypocrisy as long as they can add an AMEN after the HYPOCRICY!
Of course, as I see it to be a Ken Paxton is to have NO conscience, NONE, all it takes is a relentless self-serving passion to become King of Kings and slay any perceived foe along the way. I imagine Ken Paxton has his eye on becoming the Governor of Texas and gives no fucks if he has to fuck up the lives of a pregnant woman!
