This Practice Note provides guidance on the interpretation and application of the relevant provisions of the CPR relevant to when it may appropriate to apply for an interim injunction without notice. For guidance in relation to applications made ‘on notice’, see Practice Note: Interim injunctions—on notice applications. Depending on the court in which your matter is proceeding, you may also need to be mindful of additional provisions—see further Court specific guidance below.

6 April 2025 changes

The CPR provisions relevant to interim injunctive relief were amended with effect from 6 April 2025. In particular, CPR 25 was revised extensively and the accompanying Practice Directions were revoked.

The changes were not intended to materially alter the substantive law or practice. However, the numbering and location of many of the provisions were changed. Case law and commentary which pre-dates 6 April 2025 should therefore be approached with some caution as they may refer to the old provisions, numbering and standard orders. For further background, including links to the provisions as in force prior to 6 April 2025, see:
