Judicial Findings
Judge’s factual and legal basis for ex parte relief, including irreparable harm or risk of asset dissipation.
An ex parte attachment order preserves the plaintiff’s ability to recover by freezing or seizing assets quickly when notice would defeat the remedy; it balances urgency against due process by requiring judicial findings and, commonly, security to protect the defendant.
Use is limited to matters where statutory or common-law grounds for attachment exist and where courts allow ex parte relief under applicable procedural rules.
