Heading: Restoration of Status Quo

Text: Our inquiry next turns to whether SEIU has shown that “a preliminary injunction will properly restore the parties to their status as it existed immediately prior to the alleged wrongful conduct.” Id. Stated differently, “[t]he relevant standard requires that an injunction must address the status quo as it existed between the parties before the event that gave rise to the lawsuit, not to the situation as it existed after the alleged wrongful act but before entry of the injunction.” Ambrogi v. Reber, 932 A.2d 969, 979 (Pa. Super. 2007). We conclude that SEIU satisfied this requisite because the grant of the requested injunctive relief will restore the parties to their status as it existed before the DOH attempted to close the twenty-six Centers and eliminate the twenty-six nurse consultant positions.
