What is a Common Law Injunction ?
These are sometimes called "Assault & Trespass Injunctions".
You cannot get a power of arrest with these injunctions or an order to force somebody who is living in your home (such as a relative) to leave, if they have a right to be there.
But, these injunctions will stop somebody coming onto your property without your permission or assaulting you.
