US District Judge Jeffrey Brown authored the 2-1 decision, highlighting violations of the Voting Rights Act and the US Constitution. Governor Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton plan to appeal, while dissenting Judge Jerry Smith criticized the ruling as rushed and partisan, linking it to political agendas in California.
