Federal Suit Planned Against City Balloting
A city council candidate announced plans for a federal suit challenging Section 302 of the City Charter. He argues 302 denies due process and disqualifies him as a real property owner. He seeks a declaratory judgment that 302 violates the 14th Amendment.
High-Pointer Amendment Aims to Pause Election
Glenn seeks an injunction to halt the election until his name is placed on the ballot. City Attorney Roberts plans a quick hearing in Tyler but will not predict outcomes. Glenn filed for Place 4 claiming he meets all qualifications except real property ownership despite being told his candidacy cannot be approved.
