Looks like Abbotts order limiting drop boxes has been lifted again:

Quote
A Texas judge on Thursday lifted an order by Republican Gov. Greg Abbott that limited counties to a single drop-off location for absentee ballots in the Nov. 3 presidential election, siding with Democrats who have denounced the limit as voter suppression.

Wouldn't the earlier US Court of Appeals decision supersede any Texas judge decision?

"Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton quickly appealed Sulak’s order to the Third Court of Appeals in Austin. The court is expected to quickly rule on whether to stay Sulak’s order and reinstate Abbott’s limit."

From what I gathered, it's a pause on Abbotts order until the court decides again.
