I believe temporary restraining orders (and probably temporary injunctions) deserve their own page, but I'm going to have to de-wikify 'temporary restraining orders' for now, because it just re-directs back to this page.

I think the link to de: is wrong. Could someone with a better knowledge of german (and english) than mine check that? I believe the german article is for something like provisional decree. Didup

Andsvoss checked and removed the link on de: (see talk page there. I remove it here. Didup

I have added the correct German link, to Verfügung. The old link to Vorläufiger Rechtsschutz was partly justified because that article includes temporary injunctions. Something else: would it be correct to say that an injunction is called an interdict in Scotland (and a temporary injunction is an interim interdict)? --Doric Loon 20:28, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] overuling an injunctive relief by the courts

Once a motion is file without predjudice by the courts. How do you go in and file some type of stay for due process. This question is regarding realestate in a Bankruptcy Case. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.31.148.104 (talk) 05:22, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Propose merger from Restraining order

• Within the scope of Injunction and the article Restraining order needs globalising --Matilda ^talk 23:33, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

I disagree. The reason this page was created was because when you searched Restraining Orders the first thing that came up was a page about women abusing a restraining order to hurt men. It was very bias and unfair. Since this restraining order page has been written, this is the first result when people search. Furthermore, I think people are less likely to call something an "Injuction". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.236.175.2 (talk) 18:21, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

The issues you raise are about whether the article is properly written without bias and in an encyclopaedic manner, not whether the two topics overlap and should be one article. --Matilda ^talk 20:49, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

I suggest a new section be created in this article entitled "Types of Injunctions". Several sections of this article can be moved into that category, and then the "Restraining Order" article can be merged into this category as well, and the page for "Restraining Order" can redirect to this article. Seeing as how a "Protective Order" and a "Restraining Order" are almost the same thing, having one redirect here while the other has its own article is superfluous and inconsistent.---Puff (talk) 05:29, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Hmmm, is restraining order exactly the same as injunction? I am a laymen here, but I've heard of the restraining order, but not of the injunction... if they are not the same, they should not be merged. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 17:08, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Note from 77Pacer Studios inc.

"I won't allow the article "Restraining order 2 B merged with injunction, b-cuz I'm under a restraining order with an old friend of mine. There is no reason for this. Because of this, Restraining orders should B illegal.

[edit] The suggestion reflects a misunderstanding

Restraining Orders are a very small subset of injunctions. In other words, all restraining Orders are injunctions but the reverse is not the case. Further, it's my understanding that injunctions are universal equitable remedies, whereas restraining Orders are very specific to certain jurisdictions, for example those within the USA. Even where international equivalents exist, such as non-molestation Orders, in my view these function very differently (for example distance from specified geographical locations rather than specified persons).

Further, in some jurisdictions what used to be called writs of mandamus are now classified as injunctions, mandating rather than prohibiting certain acts.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.109.195.141 (talk) 07:15, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
