Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has taken a surprising turn in a long-running whistleblower lawsuit against him, signaling his willingness to end the legal battle by accepting any judgment and dropping his denial that he violated the Texas Whistleblowers Act. Paxton’s move comes after exhausting his options to avoid sitting for a deposition, with the Texas Supreme Court ruling against him. The lawsuit, initiated by four former top deputies who allege they were improperly fired for reporting Paxton to the FBI, continues to be a contentious legal matter.
