SCoTX punts on ERCOT lawsuit question
Wimpy. The Texas Supreme Court punted Friday on a question dogging millions of Texans affected by last month’s catastrophic power failure: Can ERCOT, the state’s grid manager, be sued? The state’s highest court ruled 5-4 that it won’t decide — … Continue reading
The accusations against Deshaun Watson keep piling up
Damn. Four more women have accused Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson of sexual assault. The new lawsuits, all filed Thursday and made publicly available Friday morning, mean seven women total have alleged Watson assaulted or harassed them. All of them are … Continue reading
