How do I obtain an interim order in a small claims court case?

In order to obtain an interim order in a small claims court case in Colorado, you must first file a Motion for Temporary Relief with the court. The Motion outlines the relief you are requesting and should include information such as the following: the parties involved, the relief sought, and the reasons why such relief is necessary and appropriate. Additionally, you should provide evidence and other material facts to support your position. After you have filed the Motion, you may be scheduled for a hearing where the judge will listen to both sides and make a decision. The judge will consider the evidence and your arguments in making his/her decision. The judge may also require additional information from you or the other party in order to make an informed decision on the matter. If the Motion is granted, the judge’s ruling will be set forth in writing in the form of an Interim Order. This Interim Order will outline the specific relief that must be provided by the other party. The Order must be followed until the court issues its final ruling on the case or the matter is otherwise resolved. If you are unable to obtain relief via the Motion, you can appeal the judge’s decision by filing an Appeal Bond with the court. Filing an Appeal Bond means that you are requesting a review of the decision and the ruling can be overturned if necessary. However, you should be aware that there is a fee associated with filing an Appeal Bond and the process may take some time to complete.
