FAQ
An injunction is a court order requiring a person to do or cease doing a specific action. There are three types of injunctions: Permanent injunctions , Temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions . Temporary restraining orders (TRO) and preliminary injunctions are equitable in nature.
Not only will an injunction require you to surrender your firearms and concealed carry permit, but the permanent injunction (if granted) will show up on a background check. That may mean that you will be unable to work or volunteer with children including your own child's school.
Unlike criminal records, injunctions cannot be expunged or sealed in Florida. However, if the order is dismissed or denied in court, it will not appear as an active injunction.
Civil injunctions in Florida are public record, but are typically not easily accessible to the general public to protect the privacy of the petitioner. Section 741.30 of the Florida Statutes allows the petitioner for a domestic violence injunction to provide his or her address to the court in a confidential filing.
If you have an injunction against you but have not been arrested or convicted of violating it, it won't show up on a criminal background check. However, injunctions are public record and can be found in court databases.
If the judge decides the sworn allegations contained in the paperwork meet the requirements of Florida law for the issuance of an injunction, the judge will enter a Temporary Injunction, which will be valid for 15 days.
The petitioner must provide clear and convincing evidence that an injunction is necessary. If their claims are weak, exaggerated, or unsupported by facts, the injunction may be denied.
An “interlocutory injunction” (also known as a “perpetual injunction”) is a temporary order which is usually framed to continue to be in force until the trial or until further notice, and is generally sought in urgent circumstances to protect an immediate right until the court has time to hear the dispute at trial.
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.
The plaintiff has the burden of proving that the defendant has breached the contract and that injunctive relief is necessary to prevent further harm. The plaintiff must also prove that the harm caused by the breach cannot be adequately compensated through monetary damages alone.
