for a court hearing, you may be able to have your case heard by
the Court ex parte. You MUST meet certain conditions to have
an order entered ex parte.

meeting with the courthouse facilitator at 8:00 am
- 4:00 Ex Parte – requires

THIRD, you must give notice to
the other party or his/her attorney unless it clearly appears
from your declaration (see below) that immediate and irreparable
injury, loss or damage will result if you give notice. Your
notice to the other party or his/her attorney must state the
time and date that you will be asking for the order and the
location of the court. You must also certify to the Court what
efforts, if any, you have made to give notice or the reasons
supporting your claim that notice should not be required.
Declaration:
You must tell the Court in a written Declaration why you think
immediate and irreparable injury, loss or damage will happen
if the order is not entered now, and why you should not have to
give notice to the other party. A blank Declaration form is
available at the Clerk’s Office. Otherwise, you have to give the
other party as much notice as possible.
