( CNN ) -- Judge William Adams , who made national headlines after the release of a 2004 video of him beating his then-teenage daughter , has been suspended by the Texas Supreme Court . Adams , while not admitting guilt or wrongdoing , agreed to the suspension . He will be paid during the suspension . The judge 's lawyer , William Dudley , said his client proposed the suspension motion with input from the state Commission on Judicial Conduct , which is investigating the incident . Adams already was on voluntary leave , Dudley said in a statement to CNN . In a separate ruling , a Texas judge ruled Wednesday that Adams can have supervised visitation with his younger daughter , 10 . Adams , a court-at-law judge in Aransas County , was roundly criticized when his now-adult daughter posted online a video of him beating her with a belt when she was 16 . The video also showed the judge cursing and berating Hillary Adams . William Adams was punishing the girl for using the Internet `` to acquire music and games that were unavailable for legal purchase at the time , '' Hillary Adams wrote on the web posting . The video is punctuated by cracks of the man 's belt and the girl 's screams and cries . At one point in the 7 1/2-minute video , the man says to his near-hysterical daughter , `` What happened to you , Hillary ? Once you were an obedient , nice little girl . Now you lie , cheat and steal . '' He yells at her , `` You want to put some more computer games on ? You want some more ? '' `` Are you happy ? '' he asks her . `` Disobeying your parents ? You do n't deserve to f -- -ing be in this house . '' He also berates the girl 's mother for allowing a `` f -- -ing computer '' in the house . `` I wanted to show my father , 'Hey , I think you were in some denial about the way you are treating me and my mother . ' And maybe showing him this would make him see something he did n't before , '' Hillary Adams , now 23 , told CNN . Earlier this month , William Adams released a statement to explain his side of the story . `` If the public must know , just prior to the YouTube upload , a concerned father shared with his 23-year-old daughter that he was unwilling to continue to work hard and be her primary source of financial support , if she was going to simply 'drop out , ' and strive to achieve no more in life than to work part-time at a video game store , '' the judge said in a statement . Adams handles family-related and juvenile court issues for the county court system . Meanwhile , a judge ruled Wednesday that Adams can have supervised visitation with his 10-year-old daughter . `` Respondent is enjoined from causing bodily injury to the child or threatening the child with bodily injury , '' District Judge Kemper Stephen Williams ordered . `` The parties are ... ordered to conduct themselves at all times in a manner that will minimize the exposure of the child to harmful parental conflict , '' according to a copy of the order provided by attorney Brett Pritchard , who represents the judge 's former wife , Hallie Adams . Dudley said both parents , who have joint custody , have been ordered to attend a parenting class . They divorced in 2007 . `` Judge Adams is certain that Judge Williams ' ruling reflects the trial court 's paramount duty to protect this child 's best interests , '' Dudley said in a statement . `` Judge Adams will take all appropriate steps to abide by the court 's temporary ruling . '' Hallie Adams had unilaterally tried to keep his client away from the girl , Dudley said . A temporary restraining order issued earlier this month enjoined Adams from visiting his younger daughter , Pritchard said . Earlier this month , Hallie Adams told CNN 's Anderson Cooper about what she called a dysfunctional home where violence was a regular occurrence . The mother participated in the videotaped beating , but has since apologized . She said her former husband told her to help administer the punishment . `` She 's ashamed she allowed that to happen , '' Pritchard told CNN Wednesday . `` She 's elated her 10-year-old will be able to visit with her dad but not be subjected to emotional and verbal abuse . ''
