3. Well there were individual lawsuits filed earlier

For example Representative Ann Kitchen sued TAB but lost her lawsuit eventually.

Here are some of the victims
Who's Suing Whom Austin Chronicle 3/2003

The Texas Observer 4/2008
(snip)
On April 5, state District Judge Joe Hart dismissed the civil lawsuit filed against the TAB by former Democratic state Rep. Ann Kitchen, who lost her seat in 2002 after a series of TAB issue ads flooded her district on behalf of her opponent. A year ago, state District Judge Mike Lynch dismissed the criminal indictments of the TAB, a decision that Travis County District Attorney Ronnie Earle’s office is appealing.

Don't know if they will try again.
