A TRO is a legal action that requires filing a mini-lawsuit against your mortgage lender and requesting that a county court grant a temporary stop or postponement of the impending foreclosure sale.
The TRO lawsuit is often filed very close to the auction date, often within one week of the auction, when other remedies to stop the foreclosure sale have failed.
IMPORTANT: A TRO approved by a court usually results in only a short-term (30-day) postponement of the auction.
When considering a lawyer to file a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) legal action for you, make sure you hire someone who has a higher chance to get the Court to approve it.
Not just an attorney. Not even a real estate attorney. But a lawyer with a lot of experience with filing TROs, and a lot of successful TRO approvals by Courts.
