FAQ
Generally, injunctive relief is only available when there is no other adequate remedy available and irreparable harm will result if the relief is not granted.
To obtain a temporary injunction, the applicant must plead and prove three specific elements: (1) a cause of action against the defendant; (2) a probable right to the relief sought; and (3) a probable, imminent, and irreparable injury in the interim.
To be entitled to a temporary injunction, the applicant must plead a cause of action and show a probable right to recover on that cause of action and a probable, imminent, and irreparable injury in the interim. “Imminent” means that the injury is relatively certain to occur rather than being remote and speculative.
Some jurisdictions may require the party seeking equitable relief to post a bond or other security prior to granting such relief. The purpose of this requirement is to protect the party against which equitable relief is sought in the event it is ultimately determined that such relief was not appropriate.
Injunctions remain widely used to require government officials to comply with the Constitution, and they are also frequently used in private law disputes about intellectual property, real property, and contracts.
Injunctive relief, also known as an injunction , is a court-ordered remedy which restricts a party from committing specific actions or requires a party to complete specific actions.
The injunctive relief clause is a contractual provision that allows a party to seek a court-ordered injunction to prevent the other party from engaging in specific actions that could cause irreparable harm.
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.
These courts consider: (1) the likelihood of success on the merits; (2) irreparable harm if the injunction is not granted; (3) whether a balancing of the relevant equities favors the injunction; and (4) whether the issuance of the injunction is in the public interest.
A preliminary injunction bond is generally required to be posted by the plaintiff in a court case when a plaintiff wants to prevent the other party (the defendant) from a certain action. This type of bond indemnifies the defendant against loss if it is determined that the injunction should not have been granted.
