In legal jargon, an "omnibus order" is a decision granted/ordered by a judge based upon an "omnibus motion" that has been filed/moved.

In the legal world, things/motions/decisions follow a procedural manner, one at a time.

An "omnibus motion" is a group of motions, which are usually related to one another, and filed together to save the court's time. The judge then either grants all of it, drop some of it or reject all of it. Imagine an Omnibus, where passengers are all taken collectively (moved) to another location.

Sometimes, an omnibus motion is filed as a delaying tactic as the court is forced to scrutinize and decide on every single motion inside before proceeding to the next, or start the trial proper.

In business, an omnibus order is a bundle of orders that is submitted (and accepted) together, be it ordering of goods or an order for multiple changes to an existing contract. Again, this saves time as cost/price calculations can be calculated collectively (especially if their costs are dependent on one another).
