(LPEO)Get the order

At the end of the hearing, the judge might give a decision right away or might delay giving the decision until a later date.

If the judge doesn't make their decision that day:

• the clerk will give you a date to come back to court and hear the decision, or
• the registry will contact you later to give you a date to come and hear the decision, or
• the judge will write their decision and mail it to you and the other parent.

If you or the other person has a lawyer, one of the lawyers will prepare the order. If neither of you has a lawyer, the registry clerk will prepare the order.

The order is effective as soon as the judge makes it, unless they specify a different date.

You've completed all the steps to apply to enforce a court order or agreement. Good work, and good luck in court.
