JUSTICE HOWERTON, specially concurring: I cannot join the majority’s reasoning, but I concur in the result because neither the temporary restraining order nor the preliminary injunction set forth specific reasons for entry, nor did the preliminary injunction or the order granting it describe in reasonable detail the acts restrained as required by section 11—101 of the Code of Civil Procedure (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1989, ch. 110, par. 11—101). Both the temporary restraining order and the preliminary injunction, without specificity, are rendered unenforceable, because without definite, clear and precise terms, reasons for misunderstanding and excuses for disobeying exist. See generally Illinois Power Co. v. Latham (1973), 15 Ill. App. 3d 156, 303 N.E.2d 448; Village of Gilberts v. Holiday Park Corp. (1986), 150 Ill. App. 3d 932, 502 N.E.2d 338, appeal withdrawn (1987), 115 Ill. 2d 540, 511 N.E.2d 438.
