Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA
TEXAS INSURANCE COMPANY CIVIL ACTION
VERSUS NO. 23-3412
TALISMAN SPECIALTY SECTION “R” (1) UNDERWRITERS, INC.
ORDER AND REASONS
Plaintiff moves for a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction.1 The motion is denied. Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65 requires a satisfactory explanation of why relief should be granted without notice, and plaintiff has not satisfied this requirement. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 65(b)(1). Substantively, “[a] temporary restraining order is not warranted when the movant fails to demonstrate irreparable injury.” Cajun Servs. Unlimited, LLC v. Benton Energy Serv. Co., No. 17-491, 2020 WL 10486334, at *4 (E.D. La. Oct. 16, 2020); Morgan v. Fletcher, 518 F.2d 236, 240 (5th Cir. 1975). “Plaintiff[] must show that there is a ‘presently existing actual threat’ in order to obtain a preliminary injunction; a ‘speculative injury’ is not sufficient. And there is no irreparable injury where
1 R. Doc. 2. money damages would adequately compensate a plaintiff.” Foley v. SAFG Ret. Serus., Inc., No. 10-2827, 2011 WL 4344611, at *4 (E.D. La. Sept. 15, 2011) (citations omitted) (quoting Canal Auth. of State of Fla. v. Callaway, 489 F.2d 567, 572 (5th Cir. 1974)). Further, the Court finds that it must hear from defendants in order to determine whether the requisites for Rule 65 relief have been satisfied. The Court will set a status conference for the
purpose of setting a hearing on the motion for a preliminary injunction by separate order.
