Publisher's Synopsis
Designed as a desk-top references, this manual covers the broad range of injunctions, their scope and limitations and the procedures required to obtain them. The book explains the jurisdiction of the court to grant injunctions; advises on practice and procedure; and covers all areas of law, with particular attention paid to matrimonial and domestic proceedings. This edition takes into account key developments affecting procedures for injunctions, including the Family Law Act 1996, which affects the family home and domestic violence; the 1994 Practice Direction on Mareva injunctions and Anton Piller Orders; the major House of Lords case on contempt; recent Court of Appeal cases on damages in lieu of an injunction; and the power of district judges to grant injunctions in small claims arbitrations.
