A temporary injunction - is a short term restriction put in place to prevent certain actions by a defendant. For example - a judge may order the defendant not to approach witnesses, or to prohibit them from entering certain business premises.

The temporary injunction will usually be enforced by a more permanent ruling on completion of a court case.

An injunction is a court order prohibiting someone from doing something. So a temporary injunction temporarily prohibits someone from doing something.

Typically, a court will issue a temporary injunction while a lawsuit is pending. For example, if two parties engaged in a lawsuit over ownership of something, a temporary injunction may be issued to prohibit either party from selling or destroying the item until the completion of the suit.

The temporary injunction stays in effect for a certain number of days, but won't last longer than 15 days. At the full hearing, the judge will decide whether to give you a final injunction.

What is the difference between interim relief and interim injunction?

Injunction is a restraining relief. Interim injunction is a variety or form of interim relief, which is a broader category. Normally when the plaintiff or petitioner establishes a prima facie case and the balance of convenience is in his favour and if he would be subject to much or irreparable harm unless some urgent relief is granted pending the main relief asked for in his suit/petition, then the interim relief is granted in his favour. The order awarding interim relief in no way decides the merits of the case. Nor can it be a res judicata; nor can it establish any ratio decidendi. It is but a discretionary and equitable relief by the Courts to maintain the status quo pending disposal of the cases or to reach some immediate relief and justice to the aggrieved party so that he can pull on further and pursue the case and his livelihood, etc. Interim relief can be of various forms - positive and negative, whereas injunction is generally or exclusively negative. It restrains the defendant or any third party from carrying out any specified action detrimental to the interest of the plaintiff/petitioner pending disposal of the case. As already stated, injunction is a subset within the broader set of interim relief. Normally interim relief granted should not be equal or equivalent to the final relief requested for - of course in very exceptional circumstances the Court can and may grant even such interim relief as equivalent to the final relief requested for.

If you have an injunction in behalf of your minor daughter against her boyfriend and your duaghter turns 18 if the injunction still valid?

Injunctions can be either "temporary" or "permanent." Somewhere in the wording of the injunction (you should have received a copy) the terms of the injunction should be spelled out. If the injunction was awarded at your request to protect your minor child it is quite possible that now that she has legally become an adult it might no longer have any effect. If you cannot determine the information from reading the injunction papers, you will have to check with the issuing court to find out.

What is a charitable injunction?

I suppose we can understand this question more easily from the dictionary definition, - 'Charitable' means "unwilling to think badly of people or acts." And from the relevant answers in this section, we have a definition for ;injunction; An injunction is an equitable remedy in the form of a court order, whereby a party is required to do, or to refrain from doing, certain acts. So i suppose we may briefly summarise the meaning as - 'a good commandment.'
