A: When you're filing an Ex Parte application in California, especially for an emergency temporary restraining order or an order to show cause, you need to ensure all your paperwork is complete. Along with the Ex Parte application itself, you'll typically need to file a supporting declaration that explains why the emergency relief is necessary. This declaration should include specific facts and evidence supporting your request.

Additionally, you must prepare and file a proposed order for the judge to sign if your application is granted. You should also include any necessary notices to the other party or a declaration explaining why notice should not be required. Each of these documents plays a critical role in supporting your application and ensuring that the court has all the information it needs to make a decision.

Finally, depending on the county, there might be local forms or additional documents required, so it's important to check with the court where you're filing to ensure compliance with all local rules. Make sure everything is properly organized and submitted on time to avoid delays in your case.
