Q: ex parte order while in the process of a divorce.
I am in the process of a divorce and my husband has raises his voice at me and doesn't respect my boundaries in front of the children. it makes me feel emotionally unsafe. Would a judge grant me a ex parte to have him leave our residence while divorce is in progress? We have a apartment that we rent.
A: "emotionally unsafe" ?? Not sure that will be enough to get a "kick out" order. You would be best served by retaining an attorney who can help you add more "meat" to your claims to get the outcome you desire.
A: It may be worth exploring the possibility of obtaining an ex parte order, also known as a temporary restraining order, to seek immediate relief. I strongly advise consulting with a family law attorney who can provide guidance tailored to your specific circumstances and jurisdiction. They will help assess the urgency of your situation and determine the best course of action to ensure your safety and that of your children.
