A legal custodian has full parental rights over the minor child and can make important decisions for the child in the same way as a temporary custodian. While a temporary guardianship is only intended for a short time, the court considers the custody decree to be final.
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.
Importantly, the emergency temporary guardianship only lasts for 90 days, so it is specifically designed to be temporary (hence the name) until a full guardianship hearing can be held. A court hearing must still take place to confirm that even an emergency temporary guardianship is necessary.
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.
Filing for Temporary Custody: To file for temporary custody in Florida, one needs to petition the court, providing necessary information about the child, the petitioner, and the reasons for seeking custody.
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.
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.
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.
