Lynn and Richard Bynes sought the conservatorship because of their daughter's increasingly dangerous behavior which lead to her hospitalization, after she set a fire in a stranger's driveway last month.
Judge Reiser's ruling allows Lynn Bynes limited control over her daughter's well being until September 30. Reiser will then decided whether or not to extend the temporary order full time.
Before he makes his decision, the judge first wishes to meet personally with Amanda, whose treatment kept her out of the court on Friday.
