FAQ
An injunction is a legal remedy, typically granted by a Court, that orders a person or entity to either do something or refrain from doing something, depending on the circumstances of the case.
Even when the offer is well crafted, the major disadvantage of a Rule 68 Offer remains the evident lack of privacy. Once the plaintiff accepts your Rule 68 Offer and a judgment is entered against you, that document is a public record available to anyone.
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.
Injunctions can offer relief where monetary compensation does not suffice or is not appropriate. For example, in the case of bankruptcy, it is more appropriate to ask debt collectors to halt their collection efforts than to request financial rewards.
Rule 68 appears at first blush to promote settlement by forcing a plaintiff to either ac- cept a proffered offer of judgment or risk paying the defendant's subsequent litigation costs in the event the plaintiff recovers less than the amount offered.
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 can reduce Plaintiff's attorney's fees Thus, while the rejection of a more favorable offer of judgment does not preclude the recovery of attorney's fees by a prevailing FLSA plaintiff, it can nevertheless substantially reduce the amount of attorney's fees a court will award as reasonable.
Under the new version of Rule 68(g), the sanctions against a party who fails to obtain a more favorable judgment than the offer is “twenty percent of the difference between the amount of the offer and the amount of the final judgment.” This change applies to offers of judgment served on or after January 1, 2022.
