If Seeking a Temporary Injunction in Dallas, See This Case.
February 17, 2025The case of Totus Group LLC v. Pruitt Family Living Trust provides a “Restatement of TRCP 683” for the Fifth Court’s precedent, reversing a temporary injunction for failing to comply with that rule in many ways, including:
- Failure to explain why the order was necessary (p. 15 quotes the inadequate language used)
- Vague acts to be restrained (pages 18-20)
- Failure to identify a nexus between the restrained acts and the alleged injury (pages 20-21)
- Impermissible use of undefined terms / reference to external documents (pages 22-23 – this is often a challenge in trade-secret cases that involve “Confidential Information” defined in various agreements)
No. 05-23-01222-CV (Feb. 14, 2025) (mem. op.).
