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.
Definition and Types Injunctive relief is a legal remedy that can be awarded by a court to prevent a party from taking certain actions or to require them to take certain actions. It is a form of equitable remedy that is used when monetary damages are not sufficient to remedy a breach of contract.
Punitive damages, also known as exemplary damages, are generally not awarded in Texas breach of contract cases. The rare instances where punitive damages are usually available involve an independent tort, such as fraud, and the conduct was particularly egregious.
Permanent Injunctions In order to obtain a Permanent Injunction, a hearing is required with both Parties present. The Court must find that the injunction is in the Best Interest of the Child or that significant harm could exist in the absence of the injunction.
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.
There are four common remedies for a contract breach. Monetary damages. Financial compensation or monetary damages represent perhaps the most frequent remedy when business litigation involves a breach of contract. Specific performance. Rescission. Restitution.
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.
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.
Injunctive relief usually takes one of three forms: temporary restraining order (TRO), preliminary injunction, and permanent injunction. As their modifying terms imply, each has a different level of the time commitment involved.
Injunctive relief is often sought when the non-breaching party is unable to recover damages or when monetary damages are insufficient to remedy the harm caused by the breach. Injunctive relief can be a powerful tool in contract disputes, as it can prevent further harm and protect the non-breaching party's interests.
