Texas appeals court ruled today that a San Angelo judge exceeded her discretion when she ordered the state to take custody of more than 460 children from a polygamous sect.

The order by the 3rd Court of Appeals in Austin said State District Judge Barbara Walther abused her discretion when she ordered the children seized and gave her 10 days to vacate her order.

It was not immediately clear whether the order means the children will be immediately returned to their custody of their parents, followers of a breakaway Mormon sect called the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
