FAQ
Injunctive relief, also known as an injunction, is a remedy which restrains a party from doing certain acts or requires a party to act in a certain way. It is generally only available when there is no other remedy at law and irreparable harm will result if the relief is not granted.
The fact that plaintiffs often choose between these remedies, or decide to seek both together, raises an obvious question. What is the difference between them? The standard answer is that the declaratory judgment is milder and the injunction is stronger.
Injunctive relief, also known as an “injunction,” is a legal remedy that may be sought from the courts to require a defendant to stop doing something (or requiring them to do something).
It may sometimes be necessary to get a declaratory judgment to clear the air regarding policy-related issues. A party typically files a petition or complaint with the court to obtain a declaratory judgment, asking for a declaration or ruling on the specific legal issue in question.
An example of this in a case involving contracts would be a party seeking an interpretation of the contract to determine their rights. Another example would be an insured individual seeking a specific determination of their rights and surrounding circumstances regarding insurance coverage under a specific policy.
What Is an Example of Injunctive Relief? Theft of Clients: If a former employee poaches a company's clients, the innocent party may try to stop the former client from causing further damage. Breach of Contract: Injunctive relief is an effective way to stop an offending party from continuing to breach a contract.
If ever there was a super legal-sounding term for a fairly common occurrence, it would be injunctive relief. It essentially means to get someone to stop doing something. In other words, you want to enjoin (stop) the other party from doing something.
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.
So in an injunctive relief suit the Plaintiff is claiming the other party is doing wrong and needs to be corrected. When you seek a Declaratory relief you are asking the Court to state essentially what right and wrong are, to make clear what the correct standard is.
