Really a little bizarre-was it a power play because she had been smacked down so thoroughly by the Texas Supreme Court? Even though CPS, the parents, attorneys, etc had worked out an agreement by which the kids would go back, and CPS would have visits etc to monitor the situation at the ranch, the Judge ADDED A FEW RESTRICTIONS to the order! So one of the attorneys in the Friday hearing said that she can't do that because there was no evidence of sexual abuse.

"I will take a look at the order and see if I can sign it," Walther said before declaring a recess.

When she returned, Walther said she would only agree to sign it if all 38 mothers involved in the lawsuit also signed it.

"If you provide me with an order signed by all of your clients, I will sign it," Walther said before leaving the bench.

Roughly a minute later, as baffled attorneys discussed her decision, a bailiff ordered everyone to vacate the courtroom.

This means that, on Monday, a writ of mandamus would be filed to make her vacate that order.

I do wonder why she did that and I believe that it was a pride-humiliation thing. Otherwise, a head-scratcher.
