3. Texas Attorney General's Office to lead complaint process
Anyone seeking to file a complaint pursuant to SB 8 must meet certain criteria before doing so, including being a Texas resident. All complaints must involve alleged incidents that occurred in those institutions covered under the law.
A complaint cannot be filed with the Attorney General’s Office until a written notice is first filed with the institution where the alleged violation took place. Once a complaint is filed with the attorney general, the institution or agency has three days to resolve the violation before any official investigation can begin, according to Texas Policy Research.
