This Practice Note considers when a court has the power to grant an Injunction and explains the variations in forms of injunctive relief, including reference to interim, final, prohibitory and mandatory orders. It also discusses the potential parties to an injunction, the circumstances in which an injunction might be suspended and the consequences of breaching an injunction.
6 April 2025 changes
The CPR provisions relevant to interim injunctive relief were amended with effect from 6 April 2025. In particular, CPR 25 was revised extensively and the accompanying Practice Directions were revoked.
The changes were not intended to materially alter the substantive law or practice. However, the numbering and location of many of the provisions were changed. Case law and commentary which pre-dates 6 April 2025 should therefore be approached with some caution as they may refer to the old provisions, numbering and standard orders. For further background, including links to the provisions as in force prior to 6 April 2025, see:
