Q. What is a "Temporary Order"?
A. A Temporary Order is, essentially, an order designed to maintain the status quo while the divorce is pending. Temporary Order Hearings are generally held early on in the divorce action. The types of issues which can be decided in a Temporary Order Hearing can include: legal custody and placement of minor children, living arrangements during the divorce, family support or maintenance, and any other issues which might have to be decided at that point. (Typically, Temporary Orders are subject to change at the time of the final divorce hearing. This is not always true, however, mostly due to stipulation.)
The Temporary Order Hearing can be critical the final disposition, however. If you have questions regarding a Temporary Order for your case, please make sure to contact a qualified attorney.
