What is order nisi?

An order nisi is a provisional order issued by a court that is not final or absolute. It may be subject to change or modification based on further evidence or arguments presented by the parties involved. The purpose of an order nisi is to give the parties an opportunity to comply with the order before it becomes final or absolute. In certain situations, an order nisi may be made final after a certain period of time has elapsed or after certain conditions have been met. An order nisi is commonly issued in family law cases, such as divorce, child custody, and child support proceedings.
