What is a Show-Cause Hearing?
What is it?
A show-cause hearing is usually required in cases where an emergency or temporary order was put into place without a hearing. The purpose of the show-cause hearing is to allow each party to the case to present their evidence and either reaffirm or refute the accusations made in the emergency application.
The defendant in the action will have the opportunity to contradict and cross-examine and the plaintiff will be able to bolster their own case. Once this occurs, the judge will enter a final order that will establish the long-term requirements for both parties. Because show-cause hearings can have such an impact on proceedings, it is important that you have an attorney who has courtroom and cross-examination experience. All of our attorneys have extensive courtroom experience and are trained in the MacArthy cross-examination style. Let us fight for you!
