Temporary orders are a way to get an agreement about child custody and support in place while the process for the final order is in process. Temporary restraining orders and protective orders are emergency agreements meant to protect the safety of a child or ex-spouse.
Under Texas law, temporary custody orders are generally not appealable. Thus, parties must wait until a final custody order is issued before filing an appeal. Generally, appeals must be filed within 30 days from the issuance of the order.

These matters include such issues as child endangerment or a parent violating the terms of the order. To modify temporary custody orders, you will need to include your reasoning for filing a motion to modify.
If you file a motion to change a temporary custody order, the judge may schedule a hearing to gather facts and information from all the witnesses. The court may, alternatively, choose to make a decision based on the affidavits and other paperwork you and the other parent submit.
