FAQ
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.
In order to respond to a motion or an order to show cause, you must prepare answering papers. If you disagree with what is being asked for in the motion or order to show cause, you must prepare an affidavit in opposition (see Exhibit A).
Emergency injunctions are legal pleas for the court to take action to preserve the status quo while the legal process is underway. The idea is that unless the court intervenes, irreparable harm will be done.
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.
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.
To file a motion for contempt in New York, certain criteria must be met. There must be an existing order of the court that is clear and unambiguous, and the accused must be proven to have known about this order and willfully disobeyed it.
A request for emergency relief pending the determination of an appeal or a motion for permission to appeal shall be brought on by order to show cause. The applicant shall contact the clerk's office in advance of the filing. The papers shall be filed as directed by the clerk's office.
Mandatory Injunction: Considered as the most rigorous of all injunctions, a mandatory injunction directs the defendant to perform an act. For example, if a court orders the removal of a building or structure due to misplaced construction, then it fits the description of a mandatory injunction.
Permanent injunctions are issued as a final judgment in a case, where monetary damages will not suffice. Failure to comply with an injunction may result in being held in contempt of court, which in turn may result in either criminal or civil liability. See, e.g., Roe v. Wade 410 US 113 (1973).
