Temporary Restraining Order {CCCH 0073}

CCCH 0073 - TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER. A Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) is a court order that is issued to provide immediate and temporary relief for a party in a legal matter. It is typically requested by a plaintiff (the party who initiates the legal action) and granted by a judge. A TRO is used to maintain the status quo while a more permanent solution is sought, usually in the form of a preliminary injunction. In order to obtain a TRO, the plaintiff must show that they have a clearly ascertainable right in need of protection, that there is a fair question they will succeed on the merits, that they will suffer irreparable harm if an injunction does not issue, and that they have no adequate remedy at law or in equity. www.FormsWorkflow.com
