Legal Phrases
Term: interim order
1.
An order made during the course of litigation, which is not a final order. Thus, interim orders are designed to grant temporary relief to the applicant, and not final relief which are made after the full hearing in litigation.
In order for a court to grant interim relief, its will usually require the applicant to give usual undertakings (see cross-undertaking in damages) to the court, and may require a payment into court to secure the costs of the respondent.
Usage: The court made the interim order to preserve the status quo between the litigants.
