An Alaska Request for Hearing to Cancel (Vacate) Ex Parte Order is a formal request from a person to the court for a hearing to vacate a court order that was issued without the presence of the person. This type of request is often made when a court order is issued without the other party's knowledge or consent, such as when a restraining order is issued ex parte. The hearing will involve the person making the request being able to present their case for why the court order should be vacated. There are two types of Alaska Request for Hearing to Cancel (Vacate) Ex Parte Order: 1) Request for Hearing to Vacate Temporary Restraining Order (TO); and 2) Request for Hearing to Vacate Permanent Restraining Order (PRO).
