Once a divorce is started, temporary orders will issue pending the duration of the case. These will determine custody, support, and temorary division of assets during the time the divorce is pending in Court and before it is finalized.

As part of filing for divorce you can ask for full custody and support. The court will allocate custody and support on a temporary basis until the divorce is finalized.
