Judge Blocks Texas AG's Deposition Demand in Catholic Charities Investigation

Court decision marks the second recent legal setback for Texas in its probe into migrant aid groups

Texas AG Ken Paxton's efforts to depose Catholic Charities RGV leaders were denied by a state judge.
The court's ruling follows a similar decision against the state's attempt to close another migrant shelter.
Catholic Charities has provided extensive documentation but denies any illegal activities.
Paxton's office claims the organization may be involved in human trafficking, without presenting evidence.
The investigation is part of a broader state initiative targeting nonprofits aiding migrants.
