You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

I am not sure what your heading means as there is no such thing as a temporary standing order in a divorce. If your husband will not let you speak with your kids, then you need to file a motion with the court to require him to provide reasonable access including telephone at all times. Additionally, a reasonable visitation schedule must either be agreed upon between you and your husband, or if unable to agree, then ask the court to order the schedule for you.
