A lawsuit has been filed to compel Gov. Greg Abbott to expedite the extradition of Christian Castro. Castro is currently jailed and faces release this week.

Charges are still pending against him in Minnesota. Further details about the case and the lawsuit are available. A judge has rejected a request from Minnesota to keep Castro jailed as part of an extradition fight with Texas.

The lawsuit aims to force Gov. Abbott to speed up the extradition process for Castro, who is expected to be released from jail soon.
