Either party can make motions before the court makes a final decision on the matters in your case. An example of a motion is where one party asks the judge for a temporary order concerning where the children will live or how much time they will spend with each parent.
The way to ask the judge for an order in an existing case is to file a written âNotice of Motion and Motionâ with a supporting affidavit. Examples of motions in family court include: motion to revise a temporary order, motion to order supervised visits, motion to revise child support, and motion to revise custody. This technical assistance packet describes how to file a written motion. It also provides tips to prepare for the hearing.
