Standing Order Law and Legal Definition
A standing order is a forward-looking order that applies to all cases pending before a court. This is a rule which is in force until specifically changed or withdrawn. Some individual judges issue a standing order on a subject when there is no local rule bearing on it. This is because a rule would not be acceptable to other judges on the court. Standing orders are criticized very often since they undermine uniformity of procedural rules at the local level.
