Prohibitory Injunctions: These are the most common type and essentially tell the respondent what they cannot do. This could include anything from contacting a specific person (the petitioner) to coming near their home, workplace, or even a certain distance from their children's school.
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.
