GOES BACK 70 ROMAN LAW
Writ of Injunction Almost as Old as
the Institution OF Trial
by Jury.

Use of the injunction is n feature
of the law almost as old as the insti-
tuition of trial by jury. 1t was first
used in 1880, when the king of Eng
land empowered the chancellor to issue
Writs restraining the barons from over
riding the common law courts. The
principle of injunction dates back fur
Their still TO Roman law: at is clss-
sificd in the law as one OF the 'ex-
traordinary writs.' Its essential pur-
pose is to prevent the doing of a wrong
whose effects, if contaminated, would
be irreparable. In other words, in
stead Of waiting for a threatened
wrong to work its damage, which a
law court might redress by punishment
or the assessment of damages, the
equity court steps in with its 'eXtraOr-
binary writ of injunction to prevent
the damage being done. It's twin is
mandamus, which commands perform
ance OF certain rights and duties. while
the province of injunction is to forbid
performance Of certain acts which
might interfere with rights or result
in wrongs"
