Default Anyone have info on a rumored Pledge Case in Texas?

I've heard one is happening, but haven't seen any info on it.

This was in the Houston Chronicle earlier:
Quote:
Texas Gov. Rick Perry recently signed into law a bill requiring all Texas public school students to recite the U.S. and Texas pledges of allegiance each day at the start of classes.

Will Harrell, spokesman for the Texas chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, said he hopes the high court will use the California Pledge case to strike down all such laws. "It has a direct impact on Texas," he said. "This law now stands under review."
From here but I have nothing further.
