It was at that point that Walther interjected and wanted it made clear on the record that no parents had been forced, at this point, to take any medications.

Both Delong and Kolb objected to the "carte blanche" parameters of expectations in the service plans, with Kolb specifically asking that language be added guaranteeing his client's constitutional right to worship freely. He asked that the language be added in particular to a section dealing with the requirements that the parents receive counseling as it relates to physical, sexual and emotional abuse of children. This came even after a CPS worker testified that she had no direct evidence that either of the parents had ever physically or sexually abused their children.

CPS countered that the plans remain deliberately vague because the assessment of the parents continues, so they can't realistically outline more specific expectations. But because those expectations haven't been outlined, attorneys for the parents don't want them to agree to such non-specific service plans.

Walther solved at least part of the problem. "I'm not sure there is a conflict if everyone agrees here that physical, sexual and emotional abuse of children are inappropriate regardless of your religious tenets," she said.

At the end of this hearing, the service plan and all its ambiguities was entered into the court record and CPS workers promised that in the coming weeks they would do their best to reunite as many of these seven children as possible, acknowledging that the siblings would be better off together.

With so many players — multiple parents, more than 450 children, 350 attorneys, five judges and five courtrooms — it all added up to confusion as the court hearings for children in the polygamist sect resumed today.

The problems for Seth and Kathryn Jeffs started out early, after the father went to the wrong courtroom with his attorney and had to be retrieved for the start of the hearing.

A couple of attorneys were teleconferenced in and were confused as well. One attorney said he was looking for a 7-year-old boy he was supposed to represent. When he was told the boy was in the right courtroom, the attorney's response was, "Beautiful."

When the hearing finally got under way before the judge, it was delayed once again because apparently attorneys, parents and the state had multiple versions of what was supposed to be the same service plan.

The hearings in the largest custody case in U.S. history are the first step for FLDS parents to be reunited with their children seized in the raid on the YFZ Ranch — or see their parental rights taken away.
