Harris Fawell said "I simply wanted to respond to the previous speaker when he indicated that the 10(j) injunction had been eliminated. Now that just is not so. The 10(j) injunction will be alive and well. It will require the usual equitable grounds to be shown before one gets a preliminary injunction, because a preliminary injunction means they get the final determination ahead of time, but understandably they must be able to show a likelihood of success, an irrevocable and irreparable harm, and a balance of the hardships between the complainant and the respondent, and that the injunction relief is in accordance with public interest. So, that is the accurate way of setting that forth." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
