	Injunction - Wex
		Injunctive relief is a discretionary power of the court and failure to comply with an injunction may result in being held in contempt of court.
		Injunctive relief is a discretionary power of the court in which the court, upon deciding that the plaintiff's rights are being violated, balances the irreparablility of injuries and inadequacy of damages if an injunction were not granted against the damages that granting an injunction would cause.
		An injunction is an equity remedy and as such is available only in cases of in-personam jurisdiction (not in in-rem proceedings).

	Injunction - LoveToKnow 1911
		Thus in a case of nuisance an injunction was obtained to restrain the defendant from preventing water from flowing in such regular quantities as it had ordinarily done before the day on which the nuisance commenced.
		An injunction may as a general rule be obtained to prevent acts which are violations of legal rights, except when the same may be adequately remedied by an action for damages at law.
		Injunctions may also be obtained to prevent the continuance of nuisances, public or private, the infringement of patents, copyrights and trade marks.
