In the business world there are many possible scenarios which might prompt a company to seek an injunction. They are usually serious issues which could cause real and lasting damage to the company if not tackled.
Injunctions can be sought to: prevent infringement of copyright, trade marks or intellectual property rights; prevent the use of confidential information and trade secrets; prevent an ongoing breach of contract or the breach of a restrictive covenant or prevent publication of false and defamatory information.
