My L objected and said there was no cause, but then the judge asked something about sending the TRO to trial or something along those lines, and my L demurred. I got the sense he didn't want to go there and I didn't have a chance to ask him about it after the trial.
The way the laws are in my state, a TRO can be granted with virtually no cause. I'm just grateful it is not a permanent one. I told my L that avoiding a permanent one was of utmost priority because it would render me unemployable.
