Motion for Temporary Custody: Securing Your Child's Well-being During Divorce

A Motion for Temporary Custody is an essential document in divorce proceedings when children are involved. It requests the court to establish an interim custody arrangement that will remain in effect until a final custody decision is made. This motion aims to provide stability and continuity for the children during the divorce process by setting up temporary living arrangements, visitation schedules, and decision-making responsibilities.
