5th Circuit Court of Appeals upholds ongoing federal investigation of Texas AG Ken Paxton.

A federal appeals court order has indicated that the ongoing investigation of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton by federal authorities remains active. The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected a bid by an unnamed state agency to block grand jury testimony by agency officials, and also rejected a request to halt a grand jury investigation into allegations of wrongdoing by senior agency personnel. This suggests that the federal investigation into Paxton continues despite his acquittal in a 2023 impeachment trial.
