What is a real estate injunction and how can it protect a party in a dispute?

A real estate injunction is a court order that can be issued in California to temporarily or permanently restrain a party from engaging in a certain activity in a real estate dispute. It is used to protect a party’s investment in a property while a lawsuit is pending or to protect the rights of a party during a dispute. Injunctions can be used to prevent a party from taking any action (such as evicting a tenant or changing a lease) that would interfere with the rights of another person. Injunctions are usually requested during the early stages of a litigation to prevent any further damage before the dispute is resolved in court. The party requesting the real estate injunction must demonstrate to the court that they have a reasonable chance of success on the merits of their claim and that irreparable harm will occur if the injunction is not granted. If the court decides to grant the injunction, it may order the party to take certain measures, such as stopping all activity related to the dispute, or it may prohibit the conduct the party is engaged in and prevent any similar actions in the future. Injunctions can protect the rights of a party in a dispute and prevent damage to their investment in a property while a lawsuit is pending.
