Injunctions

We provide practical advice to a wide range of businesses in relation to Injunctions.

An injunction may either be mandatory (that is, requiring an act to be done) or prohibitory (that is, requiring some conduct to stop or prohibiting threatened conduct). An injunction is an equitable remedy which means that it is discretionary and cannot be obtained as of right.

Injunctions have been in the media spotlight recently with the increased use of super-injunctions, which prohibit not only the media from reporting the details of a story but also forbid the mention of the existence of the injunction itself.

Injunctions are most commonly negative, in that a person is restrained from doing some prescribed conduct. The order should be worded clearly so that the person understands what they must or must not do. Injunctions may be granted on an interim basis such as freezing injunctions or search orders. The Courts will not grant injunctions where damages would be a sufficient remedy.

Injunctions can be a very useful tool for any business to restrain somebody from; publishing libellous material, statements that damage a business, passing off or disposing or the hiding of assets during the litigation process.
