An ex parte decision is made without all parties present or without notice to the other party. It is typically issued in urgent situations where there is a need for immediate action, such as a restraining order or temporary injunction.
An ex parte decision is made by a judge without having all the parties present. They are therefore temporary, and the persons affected must be given the opportunity to contest the appropriateness of the order before it can be made permanent.There may be an ex parte decision made regarding custody but as explained above it would only be temporary.
If they did then the hearing would not be "Ex Parte." For a legal definition of ex parte, see: http://definitions.uslegal.com/e/ex-parte/
An ex-parte assessment is a means for providing individuals with emergency services and temporary detention for mental health evaluation when required. "Ex-parte" means one-sided. This is an involuntary or one-sided assessment. An ex-parte assessment can be made when the person is a threat to themselves or others. If the petition is granted, then the person will be held at a mental health facility for 72 hours to determine the necessity of treatment.

Impossible. An 'Ex-Parte" hearing means that the other party is not present.
Yes, depending on the circumstances of the need for the ex parte order.
A temporary restraining order or temporary injunction for personal protection can be issued ex parte in response to an emergency application, which application to the court can be made pro se.
This is a trick question. An ex parte hearing is one where the other side is not given the opportunity to be present. Therefore, notice is not necessary. In general, ex parte hearings are only available for a limited number of special circumstances.
One type of ex parte hearing is presided over by a judge at which all the parties are not present. The most common reason being a request for an emergency injunction of some sort. The most common of those requests are domestic matters such as requests for a temporary restraining orders or temporary custody. In the United States any orders issued at an ex parte hearing are temporary in nature so as not to deprive any party of due process. A full hearing on the matter will be scheduled where both parties are present. In this type of case no appeal is necessary since the order is temporary.Another type of ex-parte proceeding is a proceeding in the case where only one party participates or appears in Court although the other party was given notice. In order for this type of an ex-parte hearing to be valid, it must be shown that the non-participant has been provided with proper notice of the proceedings. In spite of proper notice, if the non-participant chooses not to appear and contest the action, then it will result in an ex-parte decree against them.A common claim in an appeal from an ex parte ruling is that the party didn't receive proper notice. In most jurisdictions that party can file an affidavit asking that the court vacate the order and grant a new trial. The time period for filing is brief and the affidavit must provide compelling evidence for the court to approve the request.
An ex parte action may be void if it violates a party's due process rights by not allowing them the opportunity to be heard in court. This could happen if a court issues a significant ruling without allowing both parties to present their arguments. In such cases, the affected party may seek to have the ex parte order declared void by a higher court.
Much too much is unknown about the specifics of the actions and findings preceding this event to comment.HOWEVER - it CAN be said that IF you were not notified according to the rules of procedure in your state, of your ex's mothers motion, then any ruling on her motion would very likely be nullified as invalid.It sounds VERY much like you should seek the advice of counsel on this matter.
