Gutierrez v. Abbott
Last Updated Oct 4, 2022
Case No. 1:21-cv-00769 (W. D. Tex.)
Cycle 2020
Case Information
A federal challenge to malapportioned state legislative maps, based on the failure of the political branches to enact new plans by the state’s constitutional deadline. The state constitution requires state legislative districts to be drawn at the legislature’s first regular session after the publication of census data, and with census delays, that session did not begin until January 2023.
On Oct. 4, 2022, on the plaintiffs’ request for a voluntary dismissal, the case was dismissed.
