The measure is being challenged by opponents who argue that the ballot initiative is unclear about whether its provisions will apply to old debts or only to those that occur after it has taken effect, according to the report.
Maricopa County Superior Court Judge John Blanchard signed a temporary restraining order preventing cases from an action incurred before Dec. 5 that have not gone to collections yet from receiving protections under the measure, according to the report.

An evidentiary hearing is scheduled for Dec. 16, according to the report.
