Sometimes a temporary restraining order, or TRO, can provide immediate relief from the court system when a party can show irreparable harm will be caused if someone is allowed to remain in control of assets that belong to the company, according to an article posted on the website of Mehendru P.C.
“It may be that a competitor has interfered with a business contract, an employee has stolen your trade secrets or breached a non-compete agreement, or a business partner has stolen from your company. You have to go to court to protect the company though you’d rather not,” the post reads.
A judge can grant a TRO to stop an individual’s actions even without that person or his lawyer being in court.
