Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has reached a deal to resolve securities fraud charges, with prosecutors agreeing to drop the felony case against him. Paxton must complete 100 hours of community service, take legal ethics courses, and pay around $270,000 in restitution to his accusers within 18 months for the charges to be dismissed. The case, which lasted nearly a decade, has been described as a 'diversion' contract, and Paxton's legal victory has raised questions about the lengthy legal battle.
