The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals dismisses charges against former Gov. Rick Perry, who was represented in the case by Attorney Buzbee.

“The highest criminal court in Texas dismissed a case against former Gov. Rick Perry on Wednesday, apparently ending the long-running abuse-of-power accusations that dogged Mr. Perry during his failed run for the Republican nomination for president. In its ruling, the court tossed the one remaining charge against Mr. Perry and upheld the previous dismissal of a second charge by a lower court.
