Declaration Notice Upon Ex Parte App for Order
El Dorado Superior Court · Local Forms Required
Verified current as of July 25, 2026
This form is used when someone asks the court for an emergency order without the other person being present, and they need to explain to the judge in writing why they couldn't give the other person notice or why waiting would cause harm. Someone who needs immediate court protection—such as a person seeking a restraining order, emergency custody, or urgent financial relief—would use this form to tell the judge their reasons for requesting the order right away.
This form must be printed and filled by hand, or opened in Adobe Acrobat.
