Injunction Litigation

In certain cases, an individual needs to seek an injunction order from a court to preserve the status quo. In Ohio, there are three levels of injunctive relief generally available to a litigant.

  • The first level of injunctive relief is known as a Temporary Restraining Order. It lasts for 14 days and can be extended one time for an additional 14 days time.
  • The second level of injunctive relief is known as a Preliminary Injunction. If granted, a Preliminary Injunction can last the duration of the lawsuit.
  • The third level of injunctive relief is known as a Permanent Injunction. At the end of the litigation matter, assuming the evidence and law supports such relief, a court can include an order that permanently enjoins certain conduct by various individuals.

The party seeking injunctive relief must be prepared to post a bond in an amount determined by a court in case it is later determined that the parities enjoined were wrongfully enjoined and have been damaged.
