KembaraXtra – Legal Terms – Order
An order is a formal direction or decision made by a court.
In civil procedure, it usually refers to any court decision other than the final *judgment resolving the claim.
An order may require a party to perform an act, refrain from conduct, pay money, disclose documents, or comply with procedural requirements.
The term also refers to the official sealed document recording the court’s decision.
Historically, “orders” were also divisions within the Rules of the Supreme Court and County Court Rules, some of which continue to influence modern procedural rules.
