Attorney General Ken Paxton speaks at a press conference at the Houston Recovery Center on October 26, 2021., The Texas Tribune’s daily newsletter that keeps readers up to speed on the most essential Texas news.
The trial has been delayed for years over a number of pretrial disputes, including the venue. The case began in Paxton’s native Collin County but was moved to more neutral territory in Harris County at the prosecution’s urging. Separate from his criminal case, Paxton was acquitted last month in a Senate impeachment trial that centered on different allegations of bribery and malfeasance made by former top deputies in his office. When the House impeached Paxton in May, it included multiple articles of impeachment related to the securities case, but the Senate set those aside for the trial and dismissed them afterward.
