FAQ
Injunctions may preserve and safeguard assets or evidence, or may restrain people from committing certain acts. Mandatory orders require the other party to perform certain acts such as returning property.
The injunction is something ordered by the judge that can either be permanent or for a specific period of time. The restraining order usually only happens at the beginning of the case, once the person is served with a temporary restraining order and that will only last until the injunction hearing.
Permanent injunctions are issued as a final judgment in a case, where monetary damages will not suffice. Failure to comply with an injunction may result in being held in contempt of court, which in turn may result in either criminal or civil liability. See, e.g., Roe v. Wade 410 US 113 (1973).
Restraining orders are provisional measures or temporary fixes pending the final case determination. However, injunctions last for extended periods and are granted after both parties in the case have been heard.
At the hearing, you and the respondent will have a chance to prove your case, and the judge will decide whether or not to issue a final order. A final order will generally last for up to one year. However, you can later file a motion asking that it be extended for up to three years or permanently.
