Question: My ex-husband put an order of protection on my new husband. We set a court date. This morning when arriving to the court house an accident on the freeway closed the whole I-10 and we were late. They had the hearing without us and because we weren’t there it was confirmed. What can we do?? Can we get another hearing??

You can immediately file a Request for another hearing, stating why you were late and what time you arrived at the court.

Time is of the essence.

Good luck!
