District Court, S.D. Texas March 11, 2019, CIVIL ACTION NO. 5:18-CV-59 (Rancho Viejo Waste Mgmt., LLC v. City of Laredo)

Marina Garcia Marmolejo, United States District Judge *700This is a case about political speech and the impact it can have on the marketplace. It is about a company's attempts to secure a permit from a state administrative agency and a community's attempts to have a voice in that process. But above all else, it is about the proper role of the judiciary in our constitutional republic.
