Motion And Order To Modify-Extend Order Of Protection Until Hearing {OP2018-2}

MOTION TO MODIFY/EXTEND ORDER OF PROTECTION AND ORDER EXTENDING ORDER OF PROTECTION UNTIL HEARING. This form is used in Tennessee courts when a petitioner seeks to extend, modify, or otherwise adjust an existing order of protection. This form allows a victim of abuse, harassment, stalking, or threats to formally request that the court continue the protections already in place, typically for one year, but potentially for five years if there has been an initial violation of the order or ten years if there have been multiple violations. The petitioner can also request modifications such as transferring billing responsibility for wireless telephone numbers to ensure safety and independence, or other relief deemed necessary. The motion must include identifying information about both the petitioner and respondent, and it provides notice that the original protective order remains in effect until the court holds a hearing on the motion. If the judge finds sufficient cause, a temporary order may be issued extending the protection until the hearing date. www.FormsWorkflow.com
