At the hearing, you can defend yourself by demonstrating that the claims against you are false or exaggerated. You might also argue that the injunction is unnecessary or that the petitioner is using the injunction process to gain an unfair advantage in a related issue, such as a custody dispute or divorce.
If you have a full hearing, the judge will listen to both parties, witnesses, and review the evidence. At your hearing, you will have a chance to talk to the judge about what the other person said you did or alleged in the petition. If the final injunction is entered, it is not a “two-way” order.
You can file motions with the court. You can threaten sanctions against the other party (if their claims or defenses are not based on evidence or made in bad faith). You can file interrogatories. You can take the case to trial and beat the injunction on legal technicalities.
To seek a permanent injunction, the plaintiff must pass the four-step test: (1) that the plaintiff has suffered an irreparable injury; (2) that remedies available at law, such as monetary damages, are inadequate to compensate for the injury; (3) that the remedy in equity is warranted upon consideration of the balance ...
Motion to Dissolve or Dismiss: You can file a motion with the court requesting that the injunction be dissolved or dismissed. This motion must demonstrate a change in circumstances or provide evidence that the injunction is no longer necessary.
If the court grants the injunction: There will be a hearing on the extension of that injunction generally within 15 days from the date the Temporary Injunction was issued. You must attend the hearing or the hearing may be rescheduled or the injunction may be dismissed.
Standard of Proof In Florida, a petitioner for an injunction must establish by “preponderance of the evidence” (i.e. greater weight of the evidence) that he or she is either a victim of domestic violence or is in imminent danger of being a victim of domestic violence.
Having an injunction on your record could affect your job, especially if you work in a profession that requires background checks or if your job involves contact with the public. Under Florida law, if you are subject to a domestic violence injunction, you will lose your right to possess firearms.
If the court grants the injunction: There will be a hearing on the extension of that injunction generally within 15 days from the date the Temporary Injunction was issued. You must attend the hearing or the hearing may be rescheduled or the injunction may be dismissed.
