This depends upon your state's laws and to some degree its court rules. You get an injunction by filing with the appropriate court a complaint or petition alleging the reasons you are entitled to the injunction. The papers are served on the defendant and ultimately there will be a trial in the usual way. If the court agrees with you, it will issue an injunction to prohibit the other party from doing whatever it was doing that was wrong.

It may depend on what you wish the injunction for. In cases of alleged Domestic Violence respond to the the Clerk of the Court's office at the Family Division of the court and request information as to how to go about filing such an injunction. For civil injunctions you (or your attorney) must file your own motion for a hearing before a judge, setting forth good reason why you believe an injunction should be issued by the court. The ecourt will review the motion and schedule a hearing on the matter in which the judge will rule on your motion.

When a person is being harassed, they can file an injunction with the court. To file for injunction against harassment, you fill out the appropriate paper work the court requires, and provide proof to the court that the person is harassing you.

You must have very, very strong proof that your landlord as acted in violation of your rights to privacy or has broken the law. Most states lean to the landlords side as most tenant complaints as no merit, especially when they have defaulted on their contractual obligations, i.e. behind in the rent.

Like all legal answers, the answer to this question is "it depends." In case of an emergency injunction/restraining order (which are basically the same thing but different terms depending on what's being "injoined" or "restrained") there is usually a hearing set within a very short period of time after being served so the Court can decide whether there is a need for the injunction/order. If at that hearing the Court, having heard the evidence, decides to grant the injunction/order then you can normally appeal it to a higher court as a final order (unless your state has different rules) or live with it until the end of the case when the issue is heard on its merits.

File a petition with the court (known as a "motion") in which you must set forth the legal reason(s) why the injunction should be lifted.

How do you get court to reinstate injunction of harassment?

There are several ways: At the trial court level: If the order dissolving the injunction has not yet taken effect, make a motion to have the court reconsider its decision to dissolve the injunction. If the order has taken effect but the problems persist or if circumstances have changed, file a petition or motion for an order for reinstatement of the injunction. At the appellate level: If you believe the court made a mistake in dissolving the injunction, take an appeal of the court's decision and ask the appellate court to reverse the lower court's decision and reinstate the injunction.
