Injunctions: An Overview It is an extraordinary remedy that courts utilize in special cases to alter or maintain the status quo, depending on the circumstances, particularly where the defendant must stop its course of action to prevent possible injustice and irreparable harm to the plaintiff.
There are many eq- uitable affirmative defenses to injunctive relief, such as laches, prematurity, and unclean hands. In most cases in which injunctions are denied, it is for the moving party's failure to satisfy its burden of proof.
To warrant preliminary injunctive relief, the moving party must show (1) a substantial likelihood of success on the merits, (2) that it would suffer irrepa- rable injury if the injunction were not granted, (3) that an injunction would not substantially injure other interested parties, and (4) that the public interest ...

You can file a motion to revise or vacate (cancel) the judgment in writing within 30 days after the date of the judgment. This motion is usually filed to correct clerical errors, or to vacate a judgment if you believe that you were not served with the court papers or were not notified of the court date.
