This event scores high on both constitutional damage (31.28) and distraction/hype (31.02) with minimal delta (0.26), qualifying as Mixed. A-score: High election integrity impact (4.2) as lawsuit targets elected officials' ability to serve; severe rule of law concerns (4.5) using judicial process to remove opposition legislators; moderate separation of powers issues (3.8) with AG weaponizing courts against legislative branch; institutional capture elements (3.5) reflecting partisan use of state legal apparatus. Judicial mechanism adds 15% modifier, single-state scope reduces by 15%. Severity multipliers reflect moderate durability (1.1) and significant precedent risk (1.2) for using courts to remove quorum-breaking legislators. B-score: Extremely high outrage potential (8.5) with partisan removal narrative; strong media appeal (8.0) with clear villain/victim framing; high novelty (7.5) for aggressive legal tactic; strong pattern match (7.5) to broader democratic backsliding narratives. Layer 2 shows significant mismatch (7.0) between legal procedure and political stakes, good timing (6.5) amid redistricting battles. Intentionality indicators include partisan timing during redistricting fight, potential media coordination given uniform headlines, and escalation pattern in Texas political conflicts, yielding 55% intent weight. Both scores exceed 25 threshold with delta under 10, creating genuine constitutional crisis with substantial media amplification.
