Refinery Consent Decree Ties to 1967 Federal Case and Redrawn Precincts
The text links a refinery suit to a 1966 case yielding two 1967 consent decrees by Judges Joe D. Fisher and John R. Brown. After the 1970 census public hearings in 1971, Gregg County precincts were redrawn to meet federal civil rights statutes, with depositions in 1977 and a pledge to comply after the next census. Judge Atkinson urged public input at hearings. The case notes the plaintiffs found no intentional discrimination by the county court. Separately, NFL early 1970s awards show Bears tackle Waily Chambers earning the Bulldog Award from opposing linemen, the same trio leading 1975 and 1976 votes.
