A temporary custody order usually stays in effect until the court issues a final custody order or until a specific date listed in the temporary order. Including an expiration date ensures everyone knows when the arrangement will be reviewed. If things haven't changed, the court can extend the temporary order.
A motion to enter temporary orders is a request for the Judge to sign the typed temporary order. The only issue at the hearing is whether the order matches the Judge's ruling.

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.
Filing the Documents Take the original and two (2) copies of the Motion to the Civil Division of the Clerk of Superior Court's office in the county where your case is filed.

When a judge grants a motion for temporary relief, the order will only remain in effect until the formal proceedings are completed.
As the name suggests, temporary custody provides a short-term court order granting either on parent, or both parents, custody until the parents are able to reach a permanent custody agreement. In contrast to creating a parenting plan for long-term use, the court can grant temporary custody quickly.
