Local Rule LR 65.1: INJUNCTIONS

LR 65.1 INJUNCTIONS An application for a temporary restraining order or application for a preliminary injunction made in compliance with FRCP 65 will be considered by the Court only upon compliance with the following:

(1) The filing of a motion or complaint seeking such relief;

(2) Compliance with the notice provisions of Fed. R. Civ. P. 65; and

(3) Application to the judge to whom the case is assigned. Application may be made to another judge in the event the judge to whom the case is assigned is unavailable by asking the Clerk to arrange for hearing before another judge.

(4) In the event an application for temporary restraining order is filed preceding a complaint and, accordingly, before a judge is assigned, the filing of the application will cause the random selection of a judge. If the first randomly assigned judge is unavailable, the random selection will continue until an available judge is drawn, with that judge continuing through the case as the assigned judge.
