Interviewed on Fox 4 about the Texas Court of Appeals to leave the acquittal of Crystal Mason, who was prosecuted for voting because she had a felony record even when she disclosed it and election officials were even unsure if she could vote.

Everyone vote in the upcoming election. When more people vote, democracy works better.

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals dismissed an appeal in a long-running Tarrant County voter fraud case, leaving Fort Worth resident Crystal Mason acquitted after she was previously convicted of illegally voting in 2016.

For a long time I’ve had concerns about how certain cases end up before Chief Judge O’Connor. It’s not a good look for federal court in Fort Worth.

Fort Worth Federal Judge Mark Pittman actually tried to transfer some cases that appeared to be forum shopped to Fort Worth but the Fifth Circuit told him he had to hear the case even though the case had little to do with Fort Worth.

Reforms are necessary to stop this kind of forum shopping. The Fort Worth federal court docket is too busy to deal with political pet cases.

For years, conservative litigants flocked to Judge Reed O’Connor’s district. Now, North Texas has become a favorite destination of the Justice Department.

Statement by Ms Alzubi’s lead counsel Gadeir Abbas, CAIR Deputy Director of Litigation, regarding Judge Pittman’s decision to not reinstate Ms Alzubi as Principal of Western Hills High School:

“The reason the court ruled against us is because, after Shayma sued, district officials ended their investigation, raised her salary, and offered her a position they've publicly described as a promotion. We disagree with the outcome but are heartened by the district's internal decision to vindicate Shayma from the hateful accusations made against her online.

The decision, however, does not mark an end to this case or our client's passion to serve as principal. Both will continue, until Shayma's ongoing quest to be a principal in the community she loves succeeds.”

Honored to serve this servant of FWISD families.

We look forward to vindicating Ms Alzubi’s First Amendment Rights in a trial.

One of the big reasons I became a lawyer was my house burned down when I was a kid. When the house was on fire, my father rushed back in to get some supposedly important papers. A firefighter gave my dad his fire helmet. Right after my dad got back outside, the roof caved in. My parents had to file a lawsuit to get the house rebuilt.

Firefighters risk their safety for our safety. They deserve to be given security for their sacrifice.

C’mon Fort Worth, treat the FW Firefighters right.
