Injunctive Relief
- Prohibitions against creating nuisances
- Preventing Irreparable breach of contracts
- Enforcing non-competition agreements
- Enforcing non-disclosure clauses
- Forcing the return of a unique possession
The three main types of injunctive relief are temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions, and permanent injunctions. A temporary restraining order is a short-term injunction issued before a formal court hearing. These are usually issued when there is a danger that a delay in issuing an injunction will cause irreparable harm. A preliminary injunction, meanwhile, is a court order prohibiting a party or forcing a party from doing something in dispute until there is a final court judgment. Finally, a permanent injunction is a court order that a party ceases certain activities permanently or performs certain acts.

Overview of Injunctive Relief
Courts can provide two types of relief when someone suffers damages: equitable relief and legal relief (also referred to as equitable remedies and legal remedies). One specific kind of equitable relief is “injunctive relief.” Injunctive relief occurs whenever a court orders a person or entity to either perform a specific action or to refrain from performing an action. Injunctive relief is sometimes necessary when a person’s actions are causing harm or are about to cause harm. Injunctive relief can be used both to prevent future harm and to stop current harm from continuing unabated.
Here are a few common situations in which injunctive relief may be necessary:
- You need to stop a property nuisance
- You need to prevent a breach of contract
- You need to enforce a non-compete agreement
- You need to enforce a non-disclosure agreement
- You need a certain item returned (i.e. a work of art)
Three Types of Injunctive Relief
There are three types of injunctive relief:
(1) temporary restraining orders
(2) preliminary injunctions
(3) permanent injunctions.
A temporary restraining order is, by definition, a short-term injunction which is used prior to a formal hearing on a certain matter. The logic behind such orders is that failing to issue an injunction would likely lead to irreparable or significant property damage.
A preliminary injunction can be thought of as a slightly more substantial injunction. This injunction forbids a person or entity from engaging in certain behavior while a dispute is still being settled in court. This preliminary order stays in place until a final court judgment is declared. A permanent injunction is the most serious type of injunctive relief. This type of order permanently forbids a person or entity from engaging in a certain type of behavior.
