Hello,
My relatives filed for an injunction against a neighbor who was trying to prevent them from carrying on some repairs/construction on their property.
The judge put a stay on the situation and issued summons to the defendent for written reply (as to what his problem is, I think). The defendent engaged a lawyer but they never filed a written reply.
After around 6 or so chances, the judge issued what I understand as the ex parte decision and an absolute injunction. I think the next date will be where the plaintiff's (my relativess') lawyer will give evidence for the ex parte before the judge issues a decree.
Can somebody please explain what the last para really means for my relatives? What is an "absolute injunction" in this case which the judge issued? Also, what is the nature of evidence that the plaintiff's lawyer will give? Also, can the defendent make any mischief at this stage? Finally, what is a decree and is there a chance the defendent pulls any tricks regarding this?
Thanks in advace for all the explanations.
Kind regards.
