"3 Before the Court of Appeals, DFPS reframed its argument, relying instead on interpretations of “endangerment” in the context of parental termination proceedings. See Real Party in Interest’s Response to Amended Petition for Mandamus, at 30-32. These cases, however, interpret not Family Code § 262.201, the relevant standard in this case, but Family Code § 161.001, a substantially different standard, used to examine claims for permanent termination of the parental relationship after full investigation of the interests of the child. See id. at 30-32 (citing cases relating to the endangerment standard under § 161.001)."

Footnote 3, page 13, ACLU Amicus Brief

Thank you for that link

I have always thought of the ACLU as a bunch against everything I believe in I must re think that after reading this

The more I read the more I believe Texas jumped in and then found out how deep the water was.

With literally no investigation they took on a problem with not enough resources to handle.

Not enough courtrooms or judges they should of brought in more judges for the 14 day hearing.
Not enough housing for kids and mothers.
Not enough child care workers for kids involved.
Not enough states attorneys or investigators.
Not enough lawyers for kids and family's.
