None, obviously. What you fail to remember is that Chavis is the one who brought suit. Meaning he got to choose where it would be filed he chose Texas, and as another Ag poster said earlier, Texas has a more favorable law for these situations. This is the main reason Chavis filed suit in Texas. Plus, even with the Judge being an LSU grad he still has to work within precedent. He can't just do what he pleases.

And if you don't think that LSU petitioned for a change of venue without the thought of getting a favorable judge that graduated from LSU Law (the state of justice is dominated by them) then you are being quite naïve.

Chavis and Texas A&M get a much favorable venue in Texas simply because they have a better chance of getting a bench that is neutral.
