Good to see at least one judge in TX understands what needs to be done.

Actually, six of them did...and this judge is ignoring them.

You forgot the judges on the Appeals court, whose order she is defying, the six on the Supreme Court merely upheld their ruling.

Hmm, I wonder what provisions exist for the appeals court to enforce it's order. (Texas Rangers with Handcuffs would be nice, but I doubt that's the first remedy to be tried).

The judge wanted

Walther had wanted to add restrictions to the agreement worked out by the parents’ attorneys and Texas Child Protective Services, but the parents’ attorneys argued that she didn’t have the authority.

The judge then said she would sign the initial document, but only after all 38 mothers involved in the case the high court ruled on signed it first.

skip a few paragraphs:

Under the deal CPS released, the families won’t be able to leave Texas until Aug. 31 but would be allowed to move back to the ranch. It also calls for parenting classes and visits by CPS to interview children and parents in the child abuse investigation.

Walther wanted to remove the August deadline and provide for psychological evaluations of the children. She also wanted it specified that parents can’t travel more than 60 miles from their residence without 48 hours’ notice. She also wanted CPS to have access to the ranch and the children at all times necessary for any investigation.
