Temporary or Final Order?
Rule 2 of the Ontario Family Law Rules2(1). Definitions
"final order" means an order, other than a temporary order, that decides a claim in an application, including,
(a) an order made on motion that changes a final order,
(b) a judgment, and
(c) an order that decides a party's rights, in an issue between the parties or between a party and a non-party
"temporary order" means an order that says it is effective only for a limited time, and includes an interim order
[The distinction between these two types of order is important when determining whether to, and how to, appeal the order.]
