What to expect in a temporary orders hearing?
Typically, a temporary orders hearing will be handled in one of two ways, either by calling witnesses (including the parties) to the stand and asking them questions aimed at eliciting direct testimony from them (referred to as an “evidentiary hearing”) or by your attorney offering summaries of what witnesses would say.
Can temporary orders be appealed?
It’s worth noting that there is one thing that cannot be appealed: temporary child custody orders. Temporary orders cannot be appealed because they are not final judgments.
How long does a judge have to sign an order?
There is no set time. I have seen it as quick as 3 days and as long as 3 months. It depends mostly on how busy the Judge is. I genrally calendar a reminder to follow up in 30 days, and usually it gets done before then…
Can you challenge a judge’s decision?
Appeals must be filed within 28 days of an order made by a judge or Federal Circuit Court Judge. If you simply disagree with a decision there is no further recourse under the law. You can’t use an appeal to re-hear the original dispute.
Can you sue a judge for being biased?
Absolutely! You need to ask for them to recuse themselves so another judge can hear the case without being biased about the outcome. If the judge disobeyed the law, you should appeal and file a complaint about the judge.
