What is difference between a no contact order and an ex parte?

This is the state of Missouri. I know that when someone goes for an ex parte (restraining order) against you, you are served with court papers to appear in court to *redeem* yourself. tell your side of the story. How is a no contact order different? There was one placed in a court that no one else knew about and the judge granted it. so what is the difference between the two? FYI, this was done where there was no criminal action against that person, no police were ever involved, nothing happened. Just all of a sudden there is a no contact order.|||Ex parte is a Latin legal term meaning "from (by or for) one party". An ex parte decision is one decided by a judge without requiring all of the parties to the controversy to be present.





Please note, however, that in several cases (California is one of them), notice of the ex-parte is required to be provided to the other parties (in the event the other parties want to show up at court).





A "no contact" order is just that - an individual cannot have contact with another individual who obtained the order.|||dude you copied that from wikipedia...

|||Ex parte is procedural: It applies to any order issued without a two party hearing. A "No contact" is any order that forbids someone from contact with another. A NCO MAY be issued ex parte or not.
