Eric Wilson, and John Cornyn v. Mary Andrews

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that Texas Local Government Code §143.057(d) governs the City of Lubbock's civil service disciplinary appeals, granting Eric Wilson arbitration before a private hearing examiner, and rejected Lubbock's constitutional challenges to the statute. The Court also found Lubbock has standing to raise due process and equal protection claims, but those claims failed. Justice Hecht filed a concurring opinion noting a missed delegation argument.
