Texas Can't Nix Federal Suit Over Foster Care

Courthouse News Service

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (CN) - A federal judge said she has jurisdiction to hear a class action that claims Texas causes "permanent harm" to the "forgotten children" in foster care.
Representatives for nine children say Texas' long-term foster care, known as Permanent Managing Conservatorship (PMC), fails the 12,000 children in its custody. The representatives filed an 89-page federal class action for injunctive and declaratory relief in March.
