Urgent Injunctions & Interim Relief

Overview

In commercial litigation, the interim stage is often where disputes are won or lost. An injunction that restrains a competitor from using your intellectual property, freezes assets before a defendant dissipates them, or preserves a contractual status quo pending trial can be more valuable than the eventual decree. Corpus Juris Legal's litigation team is practised in moving courts urgently — filing and arguing applications for ad-interim and interim injunctions under Order 39 Rules 1 and 2 of the Code of Civil Procedure 1908, as well as Anton Piller-style search and seizure orders, Mareva-type asset freezing orders, and appointment of receivers before the Delhi High Court and Delhi district courts. Demonstrating the three-part test — prima facie case, balance of convenience, and irreparable harm — in a manner that secures relief without exhaustive oral argument is a skill built through courtroom experience. We also appear in opposition to injunction applications, preparing detailed counter-affidavits that expose the weakness in a plaintiff's case before the court grants ex parte relief.

Our Approach

We prepare injunction applications with the urgency and rigour that courts expect — detailed affidavits, clear cause-of-action narrative, and precise identification of the legal test being met. We do not seek relief that cannot be sustained at the next hearing. Where interim relief is secured, we maintain it through the interlocutory stage with equal diligence.
