Sanderson Farms, East Texas Growers Seek to Oust Kyle Bass from Case

Sanderson Farms, five East Texas poultry and cattle farms and the Consolidated Water Supply Corporation have asked an Anderson County judge to reject legal efforts by Dallas businessman Kyle Bass to intervene in their water rights litigation.

Lawyers for the farms, known in the litigation as “growers,” argue in a six-page document filed Tuesday that legal efforts by Bass to stop their court-approved settlement agreement with the Neches & Trinity Valleys Groundwater Conservation District is too little, too late and completely against Texas law.
