To address the immediate needs of the children involved, a motion for temporary custody is filed to establish a temporary arrangement until a final custody agreement is reached.
In order to file a Temporary Emergency Custody Motion, you must file a Pleading/Complaint seeking Child Custody and/or Visitation. (See N.C.G.S. 50A-209). To file a Pleading/Complaint for Child Custody and/or Visitation go to the SelfServe Center, which is in Suite 3350 of the Mecklenburg Courthouse.
The grounds for granting emergency custody include situations in which a child is at a substantial risk of bodily injury, sexual abuse, or removal from North Carolina for the purpose of avoiding the authority of the North Carolina courts. Law enforcement can assist in recovering a child with an emergency custody order.

The time length of a temporary custody order will last between five months to an indefinite period based upon the circumstances.
Judges will leave it up to the parties, but if the parties cannot agree, judges will decide based on what is in the best interest of the children. If what has been working is seen as in the children's best interest, the judge may convert the temp order into a permanent one.
Temporary child support is also called “pendente lite” child support. Pendente lite is a Latin term meaning “awaiting the litigation” or “pending the litigation.” Therefore, pendente lite applies to court orders in effect while a divorce is pending.
Temporary Orders: The Basics The orders may address any serious issue the couple wants a court order for during the pendency of the divorce proceedings. Temporary orders let the couple live separately and begin the division of marital assets before the final divorce decree.
In such cases, a parent can petition the court to issue a temporary child support order, which will set forth each parent's obligations for providing financial support of the child until an ultimate decision is made in the case.
