Re: re: restraining orders

When the temporary restraining order is signed by the judge a hearing date is set. The temporary restraining order expires on that date. If the restrained party is properly served, the court will conduct a hearing on that date. If the restrained party does not appear then the restraining order will be issued. If the restrained party is not served the court may reissue the restraining order and set a new hearing date.
