Washington Motion For Temporary Non-Parent Custody Order is a legal document filed by a non-parent, such as a grandparent or other relative, seeking temporary custody of a child. This motion is typically filed when a parent is unable or unwilling to care for a child and the non-parent wishes to provide a safe and stable environment for the child. The motion is filed in the Superior Court of the county where the child resides. In Washington, there are two types of motion for temporary non-parent custody order: 1) Ex Parte Motion for Temporary Non-Parent Custody and 2) Non-Ex Part Motion for Temporary Non-Parent Custody. An Ex Parte Motion for Temporary Non-Parent Custody is a motion filed without the knowledge or consent of the parent or legal guardian. It is typically used in cases of emergency, such as when a child's safety and well-being is at risk. The court will hear the motion without the presence of the parent or legal guardian and will make a decision based on the information presented. A Non-Ex Part Motion for Temporary Non-Parent Custody is a motion filed with the knowledge and consent of the parent or legal guardian. This motion is typically used when a parent or legal guardian is unable to meet the needs of the child and a non-parent is willing to step in to provide care. The court will hear the motion with the parent or legal guardian present and will make a decision based on the information presented.
