A lawsuit filed by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is asking the court to shut down a homeless center he says is a public nuisance.

Sunrise Homeless Navigation Center has provided care for a variety of needs, including food and health care assistance, since 2015. The lawsuit accuses the nonprofit of being a "common nuisance" to the neighborhood.

Dallas passed the charter amendment known as Proposition R, which decriminalizes possession of less than four ounces of marijuana. It also prevents police from using the odor of marijuana to establish probable cause to search people without a warrant.

Dallas, like other Texas cities, got sued when they tried to decriminalize weed. Here's how Harris County has chipped away at the problem and avoided a lawsuit.

The attorney general has agreed not to contest a lawsuit brought by former employees accusing him of retaliation after they said he abused his office.

The homeless center responded, claiming churches are protected to do work that is an expression of their religious practice.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit against a south Austin homeless navigation center "for operating as a common nuisance in violation of Texas law."
