คำสั่งศาลซึ่งอนุญาตตามคำขอในเหตุฉุกเฉินนั้น ให้มีผลบังคับตามที่บัญญัติไว้ในมาตรา ๒๕๘ และมาตรา ๒๕๘ ทวิ อนึ่ง ศาลจะสั่งให้โจทก์รอการบังคับไว้จนกว่าศาลจะได้วินิจฉัยชี้ขาดคำขอให้ยกเลิกคำสั่งหรือจนกว่าโจทก์จะได้วางประกันก็ได้
English translation
A court order granting an application filed on grounds of emergency shall take effect as provided in Section 258 and Section 258 bis. Furthermore, the court may order the plaintiff to suspend enforcement until the court has adjudicated an application to revoke the order, or until the plaintiff has provided security.

Firm annotation
Section 269 sits in Book 4, Title 1, Chapter 2 on emergency applications, the fast track a plaintiff uses when a provisional measure under Section 254 cannot wait for the ordinary inquiry. It links that fast track back to the general regime: an order granted on emergency grounds carries the same operative effect as an ordinary provisional measure under Section 258 and Section 258 bis. Because such orders can bind the defendant before a full hearing, the section also gives the court a brake, allowing it to hold enforcement until it decides an application to revoke the order or until the plaintiff furnishes security. It works together with Section 267, under which the court considers the emergency application urgently.
Why this matters in practice
The emergency track is powerful but exceptional. Courts have held that a measure is only treated as an emergency order under Sections 267 and 269 when the court actually acts urgently and the order is immediately enforceable without first serving the other side; if the court instead sets an ordinary inquiry and serves a copy on the defendant, the matter is an ordinary provisional-measure application. If you are on the receiving end of an emergency order, you can apply to revoke it and ask the court to suspend enforcement or require the plaintiff to post security. These are fast-moving steps where going to court in Thailand is best done with counsel.

Arrêt n° 1509/2514 de la Cour suprême (1971)
An application is handled under the emergency track of Sections 267 and 269 only where the court acts urgently and the order is immediately enforceable without prior service; if the court sets an ordinary inquiry hearing and serves a copy on the defendant, the matter proceeds as an ordinary provisional-measure application.
In a dispute over the return of a child, the plaintiff filed for a provisional measure. The court set an inquiry on the fourth day, served a copy on the defendant, and after the inquiry ordered the child returned within three days. The Supreme Court held this was an ordinary inquiry, not the emergency procedure under Sections 267 and 269, because the court did not act urgently and the order was not immediately enforceable without service.

Arrêt de la Cour suprême n° 6091/2534 (1991)
Where the trial court sets the application down for an inquiry, orders a copy served on every defendant, and makes its order the day after the inquiry ends, requiring compliance within fifteen days, it has not dealt with the application urgently and without delay, and the order is not one enforceable at once without service on every defendant, as Sections 267 and 269 contemplate. The proceeding is an ordinary inquiry, so Section 267 paragraph two cannot be applied to a motion to cancel the order.
The plaintiff applied on 7 December 2531 for interim protection. The trial court set the application down for an inquiry on 13 December, ordered a copy served on every defendant, finished the inquiry on 14 December, and made its order the following day, directing all the defendants to lodge the company's shareholder register with the court within fifteen days. When the defendants applied on 12 January 2532 to have that order cancelled, the Supreme Court held the court had not dealt with the matter urgently and the order was not enforceable at once without service, so this was an ordinary inquiry and Section 267 paragraph two did not apply to their motion.

Foire aux questions
Que prévoit une ordonnance de demande d'urgence en vertu de l'article 269 ?
Elle confère à une mesure provisoire accordée en urgence la même force exécutoire qu'une mesure ordinaire au titre des articles 258 et 258 bis. Le tribunal peut également suspendre son exécution dans l'attente d'une demande de révocation ou jusqu'à ce que le demandeur fournisse une garantie.
Quand une ordonnance est-elle considérée comme une ordonnance d'urgence plutôt que comme une ordonnance ordinaire ?
Le tribunal statue uniquement sur la demande en urgence et l'ordonnance est immédiatement exécutoire sans notification préalable à l'autre partie. S'il fixe une audience ordinaire et en notifie une copie au défendeur, la demande est traitée comme une demande de mesure provisoire ordinaire.
