Texas Ethics Commission to immediately appeal the dismissal of lobby case of MQ Sullivan

The case now moves to the Second Court of Appeals in Fort Worth

Attorneys for the Texas Ethics Commission are immediately appealing the decision by a judge in Denton County who dismissed the lobby case against Michael Quinn Sullivan, the spokesman for Midland oilman Tim Dunn.

During a hearing in North Texas on Wednesday, the judge who replaced Judge Steven Burgess – who was removed amid allegations of bias in Sullivan’s favor – dismissed the case.
