Terms Used In Indiana Code 34-26-6-10
- Defendant: In a civil suit, the person complained against; in a criminal case, the person accused of the crime.
- Plaintiff: The person who files the complaint in a civil lawsuit.
- Temporary restraining order: Prohibits a person from an action that is likely to cause irreparable harm. This differs from an injunction in that it may be granted immediately, without notice to the opposing party, and without a hearing. It is intended to last only until a hearing can be held.
Sec. 10. A defendant shall be personally served with a copy of the petition, temporary restraining order, if any, and a notice of the hearing not less than five (5) days before the hearing. However, the court may, for good cause, upon the filing of a motion by a plaintiff or upon the court’s own motion, shorten the time for service on the defendant.
