Injunction is what the plaintiff would be seeking in this case. Injunction is a legal order issued by the court which compels the defendant (whether he is business, government or the person) to do or to stop doing something that causes harm or violates the certain guaranteed rights of the person. First step is to fine the defendant but sometimes that is not enough and that’s when injunction comes into play.
