Motions
Between the time of the petition and the final hearing, you may have cause to file various motions with the court. These motions may include:
- Motion to compel discovery - if the opposing party does not comply with discovery requests
- Motion for temporary support or fees - if one party needs temporary alimony, child support, or cannot afford their own attorney fees
- Motion for contempt - if the opposing party repeatedly does not obey a court order
Motions are filed with the court and the opposing party. A short hearing is scheduled where a judge will consider the motion. If the opposing party, through their fault or refusal to comply, causes the need to file a motion, the judge may award attorney fees needed to file and argue that motion.
