No, even if everything you said was true - and I’m not sure it is - Abbott is protected against criminal prosecution for actions he takes as governor in his official capacity, outside of some specific exceptions like corruption. Since it’s Texas state policy to charter buses and transport migrants elsewhere, what he is doing doesn’t fall under the DoJ’s purview.
If anyone were to try to stop this using the courts, it would have to be California. They’d have to sue in federal court to get an injection against Texas continuing to send them migrants. I’m not sure what law they’d use or if there even was one, but they’re the injured party and would be the only party with standing.
It would be a political non-starter for any California Governor to indicate the immigrants are unwelcome.
Sue for costs, maybe? But we (California) keep describing migrants as net positives to our economy, so it would undercut messaging.
I don’t think California could sue for costs, only sue to stop a policy which affects them. Sovereign immunity, I think would cover this
