(CNN) A family hoping to keep their 10-month-old son on a ventilator was denied their appeal by a Texas court Friday, family attorney Kevin Acevedo said. The baby, Nick Torres, was found unconscious in a bathtub in Harris County last month, according to court documents. In Friday's judgment, a three-judge panel said they found "no error" in the initial decision made by a district court. However, the judgment won't go into effect until Monday at 5 p.m."His heart is still beating, apparently his temperature is still being regulated by some part of his brain," Acevedo said. He was transferred to the Texas Children's Hospital in Houston from the local hospital where he was first taken.
