Examples: “I am asking the court to grant me a _____ month/year injunction.” “I want no contact in person, at home, by phone, at work, by mail or through third parties.” “I would consider any contact in the future to be a violation.” Tell the court why you would like the temporary restraining order injunction.
Economic Damages (Special Damages) Economic damages are those losses for which a specific monetary amount can be assigned. This may be through mechanic reports for automobile accidents, medical bills, and time spent away from work resulting in loss of wages.
