Restraining Order is judicial directive that prevents an individual from carrying out a particular action. Two common types of restraining orders seen in family law cases are restraining orders relating to disposition assets in a divorce action and an abuse prevention order.
Once a Complaint for Divorce is filed and served, both parties in the divorce action are prohibited from excessive or unusual selling, transferring, encumbering, concealing, removing or disposing of personal or shared marital assets. This rule acts to protect marital estates of divorce litigants. It is important that adherence to this rule is monitored throughout divorce proceedings
