State Court Grants Texas Extension in Small-Cells Case

Texas may have until Jan. 20 to file a brief in a case at the Texas 3rd Court of Appeals on recent state laws preempting local governments in the right of way, the court said Tuesday (case 03-22-00524-CV). The court granted the state’s unopposed motion earlier that day to extend the deadline 30 days from Dec. 7. Cities challenging the Texas laws and the state each appealed aspects of a lower court’s decision (see 2211230015).
