Automatic Temporary Restraining Orders (ATRO’s) in California are printed on the back of the summons and effective as to both parties when filed.  They prohibit  disposal of property by any methodology, except for living expenses, which you would have to prove in court.

What this means is, you cannot buy or sell property, get a loan on it, or anything else that may lower the value of the community asset you are “wasting”.
