§ 1396 Injunction by defendant.

If you're being sued and you want to stop the other side from doing something while the case is going on, you can ask the court for an injunction too. You do this by including the request in your answer to the lawsuit, treated like a counterclaim against the person who sued you.

To get this kind of court order, you have to follow the same steps and rules that apply to anyone else asking for an injunction. There's no special shortcut just because you're the defendant. You still need to show the court why you need this protection, using the same process the law already lays out.
