Permanent Injunction
A permanent injunction is a legal ruling by a court that orders someone to stop doing a specific action indefinitely. It is usually issued after a hearing where the court determines that the action causes harm that cannot be adequately addressed through monetary compensation. For example, if a company is polluting a river, the court might impose a permanent injunction to prevent them from continuing that activity. Essentially, it’s a long-lasting legal order aimed at protecting rights or preventing future harm.

A permanent injunction is a court order that permanently prohibits someone from doing a specific action. This legal remedy is typically issued after a trial, where the court has determined that ongoing harm could occur if the action continues. For example, if a company is found to be infringing on a patent, a permanent injunction would stop them from using that patented technology forever. Unlike temporary injunctions, which are short-term solutions, permanent injunctions aim to provide a lasting resolution to a legal dispute.
