Description
Injunction is a draconian order. It limits certain legal rights of a person involved in a legal battle. However, it is needed in special circumstances to preserve the subject matter of a dispute before final disposal of the legal action in court. The court will only grant an injunction upon strict compliance of the rules and the underlying principles. More often than not, applications for an interlocutory injunction are rejected because of the failure of the party to convince the court of its necessity. For example, an injunction will not be given if the remedy sought by a party in a civil suit is adequate. This course will enlighten participants on the fundamentals of interlocutory injunction, and its practical aspects.
