The city of Joplin's request for a temporary restraining order against Jasper County Emergency Services will be heard 1:15 p.m. Wednesday in Jasper County Circuit Court, only five days before Emergency Services is scheduled to take over dispatching of the city's 911 calls.
The city is asking for a permanent injunction preventing the changeover from taking place.
The city opposes the change, saying it will slow emergency responses to those within the city limits and put Joplin residents at risk.
