They just blocked the map temporarily and will be deciding this later. They're hearing arguments on January 9.
To be honest, I agree with their decision. I don't think it's exactly fair that some states can gerrymander with absolutely no restrictions but others can't. Yeah, I understand the Voting Rights Act's purpose but nowadays, redistricting is not being done (at least not in TX) with the intent of diluting the voting power of minorities. It's being done for partisan purposes, yes, but a lot of blue states do it too.
When the Democrats draw up maps excluding the Republican voters... everything is grand and everybody is happy.
When the Republicans do the same thing to the Dems... it's "Not Fair".
BOO HOO HOO
