In California, parents have the right to petition for an emergency custody hearing in family court under certain circumstances to protect their child from imminent harm.
Legal Examples: A Show Cause Order is issued to a party who has allegedly violated a court order. The individual must appear in court to explain why they should not be held in contempt for failing to comply with the original order, such as not paying court-ordered child support.
Unlike a notice of motion, which is served first then filed, an order to show causes is filed first then served. It is filed before serving because the court sets the motion date, the amount of time for service of the motion, and how the order to show cause must be served.
How to Fill Out an Order to Show Cause Write the county name. Write the Article for your case type. Write the name(s) of the petitioner(s). Write the name(s) of the respondent(s). Write the docket number, if it exists. Write your name. Write the date you signed the affidavit. Write the month you signed the affidavit.
In New York, this type of substitute motion is called an "Order to Show Cause." An order to show cause can be heard anytime the court directs, even fewer than the usual eight days, and even as short as a few hours later, if the court is convinced there's a real emergency.
An Order to Show Cause is way to present to a judge the reasons why the court should order relief to a party. For example, a party can seek an order granting discovery, or dismissing all or part of an action by bringing an Order to Show Cause.
I beg your honor to please consider my sincere plea to remove the no contact order. You are the one who has the ability to give us, as a family, a second opportunity.
Using the facts of the incident only, keep your statement brief and to the point. Briefly describe the most recent incident of abuse and/or threats of abuse or other behaviors. Focus on the actual behavior. Do not include prior incidents, (that will be the next paragraph).
The burden of proof is on the protected party to prove to the court by a preponderance of the evidence that there is a reasonable apprehension of future abuse.
If the judge decides that there was abuse and that there is also a credible threat to the plaintiff's safety, a final order of protection will be granted and will last for up to one year.
