Injunction

An injunction is a court order requiring someone to do something or stop doing something.

Supreme Court cases often arrive after lower courts grant, deny, narrow, or pause injunctions.

Injunction disputes can reach the Court through emergency applications, appeals, or merits cases about the scope of equitable relief.

Identify whether the injunction is preliminary or final and whether the Court is reviewing remedy, liability, or both.

An injunction can be preliminary or final. Emergency review of an injunction is different from final merits review.
