Texas. Attorney-General's Office

Instigated in 1956 when the Texas Attorney General sought to investigate the files of the NAACP branches in Houston and Dallas, the lawsuit in the 7th District Court of Texas in Smith County resulted in a permanent injunction, which prohibited the NAACP from involvement in political and litigious activities, restricting the organization to charitable and educational functions.
