Upon receipt of the petition, the court shall order a hearing which shall be held no later than ten (10) days from the date of the order. A plaintiff or witness in a protective order case may request, without the need for a motion, or good cause determination, that the court allow appearance by telephone, videoconference, or by other two (2)-way electronic communication device. The court shall consider whether the safety or welfare of the plaintiff or witness would be threatened if testimony were required to be provided in person at a proceeding. The court may issue an ex parte temporary order pending the hearing as provided in § 40B107 of this Chapter.
