Oregon Ex Parte Motion For Status Quo Order (6B) is a legal procedure available in Oregon that allows one party to seek an emergency court order without giving the other party notice or an opportunity to be heard. The motion is commonly used in family law cases to preserve the current status quo while the case is pending. The motion is filed with the court along with a supporting affidavit, and can be granted on an ex parte basis (without a hearing). This means that the court may grant the order without the other party being present. The order can be used to: 1. Preserve the current status quo by prohibiting certain actions or requiring certain actions; 2. Require the parties to attend counseling; 3. Require the parties to exchange financial documents; 4. Require the parties to appear in court for a hearing; 5. Require the parties to pay temporary spousal or child support; or 6. Require the parties to attend mediation or arbitration. The Oregon Ex Parte Motion For Status Quo Order (6B) is an important tool for parties to seek an emergency court order when circumstances require it. It is important to note that the order is only temporary, and is subject to being modified or vacated at a later date.
