In re Ruby V. Ludwig
&
In re Joy Higdon
ORIGINAL PROCEEDINGS FROM TRAVIS COUNTY
O R D E R
The attorneys ad litem for the children have filed a motion for rehearing with this Court. The motion is overruled. However, we note that our opinion stated that the writ would issue only in the event that the trial court did not (1) vacate its order terminating Higdon's parent child relationship and (2) dismiss the department's SAPCR. Relator Ludwig's intervention is unaffected by the trial court's dismissal of the department's SAPCR. See In re Bishop, 8 S.W.3d 412, 420 (Tex. App.--Waco 1999, pet. denied) (section 263.401 only requires dismissal of department's suit). All issues concerning conservatorship and possession of the children remain pending in the trial court.
It is ORDERED this 18th day of November 2004.
