WASHINGTON (AP) - A Texas appeals court Monday granted Rep. Tom DeLay's request to stop a prosecutor from filing subpoenas in the former majority leader's pending money laundering case.
The Third Court of Appeals panel in Austin, Texas, also said that several subpoenas issued by Travis County District Attorney Ronnie Earle are null and void because DeLay's trial is on hold.
In addition, any outstanding subpoenas issued before the trial was put on hold are suspended during the stay, the court said.

Great!
Can anyone splain, please!
Easy! Ronald Earle is getting out-lawyered again.
Earle doesn't have a case and continued to try to get more incriminating evidence with broad subpeonas. He was fishing. This puts a stop to it, at least for a while.
Finally.
The whole thing is a political witchhunt, and that it's been allowed to continue a disgrace for the Courts. Finally they get one right.
This is so obviously political, you might even expect a "journalist" to realize it...well then again, without forged documents supporting such a premise...
