What is a Temporary Relief Order in an Illinois Divorce<\/strong> <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Typically, the more complicated a divorce, the longer it will take to resolve. If you and your spouse disagree on the division of marital property and debt, allocation of parental responsibilities and parenting time, spousal maintenance, or other divorce terms, it is likely that this will increase the amount of time it takes to finalize the divorce. Complex assets such a family business or certain investments may also increase the duration of the divorce. Fortunately, you may be able to receive temporary relief order from the court that address immediate concerns during the divorce process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Temporary Court Orders for Financial Issues and Child Custody Concerns<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

At the conclusion of a divorce, the divorce decree will describe the terms of the divorce. The decree may contain directions for child support, the division of debt and property, spousal maintenance, and\/or child custody which the spouses are expected to follow. However, you may not have to wait until the divorce is finished to receive court orders about these issues. A temporary relief order may address which spouse lives in the marital home during the divorce process, spousal maintenance, marital property, child custody, child support, and health insurance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When deciding temporary orders for spousal support and child support, courts consider the spouses\u2019 assets, income, and needs and then issue an order that is reasonable based on these circumstances. Temporary orders may be modified if there is a substantial change in circumstances such as a major change in income. Temporary orders expire once the divorce is finalized. The orders contained in the final divorce decree may differ considerably from temporary orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Temporary Child Custody Orders Can Influence Final Child Custody Determinations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

When married parents decide to get divorced, most decide to live apart during the divorce process. This means that the parents will need to decide how to divide parenting time while the divorce is still ongoing. A temporary order for child custody can do just this. However, it is important to note that a temporary child custody order can have a significant impact on final child custody determinations. Illinois courts are likely to keep a child\u2019s living arrangements similar to what he or she has already become accustomed to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
