A judge can enter a temporary injunction the same day without the other side present, followed by a full hearing on a short statutory clock; the temporary order runs for a fixed period not exceeding 15 days (Rule 12.610).
Injunctions can address contact, the home, temporary time-sharing and support, and firearms surrender. Violating one — including by contact the petitioner invites — can be a crime.
The injunction case is separate from any divorce or paternity case; safety routing in this platform always comes before workflow.
Attorney-review note: Both sides of injunction cases warrant attorney or advocate involvement — stakes include criminal exposure and firearms rights.
