One week before trial, the Texas Department of Correctional Justice (TDCJ) fully capitulated and agreed to grant our client, a Rastafarian, a religious accommodation to wear his hair in locks.
Congratulations to the Winston team that secured this important religious accommodation for our client through their rigorous pre-trial preparations, which included numerous depositions and a resounding win against a summary judgment motion filed by TDCJ.
