Litigation Roundup: Camp Mystic Wants Arbitration in Fatal Flood Suits

April 6, 2026 Michelle Casady

In this edition of Litigation Roundup, a San Antonio-based Jackson Walker partner is tapped to represent a man in a $37 million bid-rigging conspiracy case in Hawaii, and Camp Mystic asks a Travis County district judge to send litigation over the fatal July 4 flood to arbitration. 

And in judicial news, a vacancy on the bankruptcy bench in San Antonio opened up Friday when U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Craig Gargotta retired. Gargotta was appointed to the bankruptcy bench in October 2007 and in November 2021 became the chief bankruptcy judge for the Western District of Texas.
