An injunction is an equitable remedy that does which of the following?

• A. Provides damages for breach
• B. Grants ownership transfer
• C. Enforces performance of contract
• D. Orders someone to stop a particular activity

Answer: (B)

An injunction is an equitable remedy where the court issues an order directing someone to stop doing a particular act or to do something specific. Its essence is to control conduct to prevent injustice, especially when damages wouldn’t adequately fix the harm. So the key feature is prohibiting ongoing or future conduct, i.e., stopping a activity.

Damages are a different remedy, aimed at compensating harm after it happens, not stopping the conduct in the first place. Transfer of ownership is about conveying title, not about ordering behavior. Enforcing performance of a contract is typically done via specific performance, another equitable remedy focused on compelling action under a contract, whereas an injunction usually restrains conduct rather than enforce full contract performance.
