Question

What does this mean? On Thursday of each week during the regular school term beginning at 6 p.m. and ending at 8 p.m., or at the possessory conservator's election made before or at the time of the rendition of the original of modification order beginning at the tine the child's school resumes, unless the court finds that visitation under this subdivision is not in the best interest of the child

Answer

Hard to really say without knowing more about the election and the terms of the original modification order.

Answer

The provision is referring to the possessory conservator's weekly Thursday two hour visitation with the children - but Mr. Kielich is right, without more information, it is impossible to know. Apparently, if the possessory conservator made an election as to a different schedule at the time of rendition of the order, then that election would prevail. In either case, the Court retains the right to suspend the visitation. It is a difficult, wordy sentence, and the surrounding language would help explain it.
