Texas Officials Ask State Supreme Court to Stay Lower Court Ruling Salt Lake Tribune May 27, 2008 http://www.sltrib.com/news/ci_9392213 Posted: 9:41 AM- The Texas Department of Family and Protective Services continues to argue it does not have sufficient evidence to match FLDS children with alleged mothers, in a new document filed today with the state Supreme Court. On Friday, the department asked the court to stay a lower court's ruling that children from the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints were kept in state custody improperly and that they should be returned to their families. The initial request from DFPS contends the ruling issued Thursday by the 3rd Court of Appeals in Austin was overbroad and would "irreparably" affect the outcome of cases involving hundreds of children taken from the polygamous sect's ranch in Eldorado last month. |
