Family given until Monday to file new motion or pull 10-month-old from life support

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Harris County Judge Donna Roth denied a temporary injunction after reviewing 10-month-old Nick Torres' case in civil court on Friday.

This means Nick will be taken off of life support on Monday at noon unless the family files another motion before then.

Kevin Acevedo, the attorney of Nick's parents, Mario and Patty Torres, said the family will be filing an appeal on Monday, and Acevedo indicated they are willing to take this all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.

However, the attorney added an appeal doesn't mean the court will interfere with the hospital's decision to take the child off life support.

The boy was transported to Texas Children's Hospital after he was found unresponsive in a bathtub last Thursday. Little Nick has been on life support ever since.

Outside of the courthouse on Friday, dozens of people, including members of Nick's family, were protesting to keep him on life support.

"Give Nick time!" Protesters pleaded with signs and voices to give a 10-month-old more time on life support affter a near-drowning.

"We're protesting for more time for the judge so that way they can at least find another hospital they can take the child to," Mark Torres, Nick's uncle, said. "We're hoping for a miracle. We are praying for a miracle."

Inside the courtroom, one of the doctors that testified before the judge said Nick Torres was declared deceased on Sept. 30, after a brain wave test was conducted, revealing that the infant did not have any brain activity. Other doctors and professional experts testified agreeing to the conclusion based on medical results.
