Wednesday’s ruling is the second time a Texas judge has ruled against the attorney general for investigating shelters helping migrants.

A table with religious objects for sermons at the Catholic Charities RGV Humanitarian Respite Center in McAllen in 2021.

Catholic Charities argued that the attorney general's office failed to show that there would be any benefit to the deposition.
