Texas judge blocks NRA from declaring bankruptcy
CBSN
A federal judge in Texas ruled Tuesday that the National Rifle Association cannot file for bankruptcy, a decision that calls into question the gun-rights group's plan to relocate its headquarters to escape oversight by New York regulators.
Judge Harlin Hale's decision comes almost 10 months after New York Attorney General Letitia James filed a lawsuit against the NRA, accusing four of the organization's top executives of mismanaging funds and violating state and federal laws. "The @NRA does not get to dictate if and where it will answer for its actions, and our case will continue in New York court," James tweeted Tuesday after the ruling.More Related News
