The Texas Supreme Court rules that Gov. Greg Abbott wanted trans kids taken away from their supportive parents, but the court said he doesn't have to power to do that.

But my understanding is that it doesn't necessarily stop the investigations.

It’s a real problem when one side says here’s the new directive. Then the Court says the Division of Family Services doesn’t have to follow the directive. Ambiguity in the laws, executive orders, and mandates keep people in the dark.

Another ruling in favour of sanity.  There is similar good news from Alabama today.

 

Basically, this ruling is saying that the governor's directive is null and void.  The Division of Family Services always could investigate parents if there is evidence of abuse, and they now revert to that status.  But they don't have to comply with the governor's (null and void) directive, which require an investigation even if there was no abuse.
