Sole custody, supervised visitation, and attorney's fees award reversed

14-05-01271-CV Trudie Lynne Baltzer v. Larry Ruiz Medina
Appeal from 310th District Court of Harris County (Judge Lisa Millard)

The trial court did not reversibly err in failing to file findings of fact and conclusions of law or in granting
Larry the exclusive right to make decisions concerning S.M.'s education, as well as the exclusive right to
consent to medical, dental, and surgical treatment involving invasive procedures and to consent to
psychiatric and psychological treatment of S.M.  The trial court, however, abused its discretion by (1)
limiting Lynne's periods of possession to less than that provided in a standard possession order, (2)
ordering that her periods of possession be supervised, and (3) designating Larry as sole managing
conservator rather than continuing Larry and Lynne as joint managing conservators.  Given these
errors, the court of appeals reverse all attorney's fees awards and remands these issues to the trial
court for reconsideration.
