Texas cattle quarantine postponed by court order
Judge John Boyd of Castro County ordered the State Animal Health Commission to meet federal brucellosis standards, delaying an interstate cattle quarantine.

The injunction was requested by the Associated Milk Producers Association and four individuals.
