District Judge Amy Clark Meachum issued a temporary order halting the investigation by the State into the parents of the 16-year-old girl.
Meachum issued the order hours after attorneys for the state and for the parents appeared her via Zoom in a brief hearing.
The groups also represent a clinical psychologist who has said the order will force her to choose between reporting her clients to the state or facing the loss of her license and other penalties. Abbott’s directive and the attorney general’s opinion go against the nation’s largest medical groups, including the American Medical Association, which have opposed Republican-backed restrictions filed in statehouses nationwide.
The Texas lawsuit does not identify the family by name. The suit said the mother works for DFPS on the review of reports of abuse and neglect. The day of Abbott’s order, she asked her supervisor how it would affect the agency’s policy, according to the lawsuit.
