Gonzalez Garza v. Starr County (Randy Crane, S.D. Tex. 7:18-cv-46)
A federal district judge declared unconstitutionally vague an apparent proscription against electioneering on county-owned property adjacent to voting locations, finding that the apparent order was expressed merely as a desire. Litigation continued for three years during several amendments to the policy, several amendments to the complaint, and additional rulings by the judge. A final settlement brought the action to an end.
