But the Texas Court of Appeals ruled that the Texas Department of Protective Services overstepped its authority by removing children who were not in "immediate" danger of harm.

The state high court Thursday upheld that decision, denying an appeal by Texas authorities who said they needed to remove the children from the ranch to ensure their safety.

"On the record before us, removal of the children was not warranted," the ruling said.

It said Texas child protection authorities took possession of "all 468 children at the Ranch without a court order."
