Court Order




One kind of interim order is a temporary Restraining Order (TRO) to preserve the Status Quo . Such an order may later overturned or vacated during the litigation, or it may be a final order and judgment only subject to appeal.

In the area of Domestic Violence courts will routinely issue a Temporary Order Of Protection (TOP) (or temporary protective order, '''TPO''') to prevent any further violence or threat of violence. In Family Law temporary orders can also be called ''pendente lite'' relief and may include grants of temporary Child Custody , Visitation , Spousal Support and Maintenance .
