[00:00:00]So, updating a story first uncovered by Texas Scorecard, a self-described Muslim university operating in North Texas is facing a lawsuit from Attorney General Ken Paxton over allegations that it illegally offered unapproved degrees while misleading prospective students about its legitimacy and its ties to Texas A&M.

[00:00:23]Filed yesterday in Collin County, the lawsuit targets Texas American Muslim University and its administrators. The action is seeking both temporary and permanent injunctions as well as more than $1 million in civil penalties. Tex A&M, as it called itself, is alleged to have operated as an unlicensed and unaccredited university.
