Consult with the City’s attorneys on the legal status, expenses, strategy and options for resolution of litigation in Cause No. 22-10794-393, styled “Alison Maguire, Keri Caruthers, and Olivia Jeffers v. Gerard Hudspeth, in his Official Capacities as Mayor of the City of Denton, Texas as Presiding Officer of the Final Canvassing Authority for the City of Denton, and as Presiding Officer of Authority Ordering Election” pending in the 393rd District Court, Denton County, Texas and litigation in Cause No. 22-4543-431, styled “Alison Maguire, Keri Caruthers, Tracy Runnels, and Emily Meisner v. Rosa Rios, in her Official Capacity as City Secretary of the City of Denton, Texas, the City of Denton, Texas, Donald Duff, in his Official Capacity as Representative of a Committee of Electors in the City of Denton, Texas; and, Frank Phillips, in his Official Capacity as Denton County Elections Administrator” pending in the 431st District Court, Denton County, Texas; where public discussion of these legal matters would conflict with the duty of the City’s attorneys to the City of Denton and the Denton City Council under the Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct of the State Bar of Texas, or otherwise compromise the City’s legal position in pending litigation.
