judicial order

Read a random definition: judicial settlement

A quick definition of judicial order:

A judicial order is a written command or instruction given by a court or judge. It can be a final decision or a temporary order that directs a party to take a specific action or show cause why they should not. There are different types of orders, such as a filiation order that determines paternity and child support, or a restraining order that prohibits someone from doing something. Orders can also be related to buying or selling securities, such as a market order to buy or sell at the best available price.

A more thorough explanation:

A judicial order is a written command or direction issued by a court or judge. It can be a final decree or an interlocutory direction or command that relates to some intermediate matter in the case. An order can be issued on a subsidiary or collateral matter arising in an action, not disposing of the merits, but adjudicating a preliminary point or directing some step in the proceedings.

Examples of judicial orders include:

  • A court's determination of paternity, usually including a direction to pay child support (filiation order)
  • An order directing a party to appear in court and explain why the party took (or failed to take) some action or why the court should or should not grant some relief (show-cause order)
  • An order that relates to some intermediate matter in the case; any order other than a final order (interlocutory order)
  • An order that must be executed as soon as it reaches the trading floor (fill-or-kill order)
  • An order to buy or sell at a specified price, regardless of market price (limit order)
  • An order to buy or sell at the best price immediately available on the market (market order)
  • An order to buy or sell when the security's price reaches a specified level (the stop price) on the market (stop order)

These examples illustrate how a judicial order can be issued in various contexts, such as family law, civil procedure, and securities trading. They also show how a judicial order can be used to direct a party to take a specific action or to limit the scope of a party's claims or defenses.

Anyone know how long it takes to get aid package after getting admitted to UChicago or Northwestern?
I’d ask in the t14 chat bc lol it may be a bit until you can get someone who can answer that question here

@syddak: Oof tough spot. Congrats on the As. Did either indicate either via email/mail that they would be following up with aid, and if so, did they provide a time frame? It may be acceptable to email them and indicate seat deposits are fast approaching and you are curious if you can expect further info (aid) from the school to aid u in ur decision..
