What is Injunction?
Court order जो एक party को specific action करने से रोकती है।
Description
An injunction is an urgent court order that either compels or prevents specific actions. In real estate, injunctions are used to stop property transfers during ownership disputes, prevent unauthorized construction or demolition, and halt lease termination while a dispute is being resolved.
Dubai courts can issue injunctions through both the Dubai Courts system and the DIFC Courts. An injunction against a property may result in a block on the DLD registration preventing any transfers until the court lifts the order. For time-sensitive matters, emergency (ex parte) injunctions can be obtained without the other party's presence, subject to a full hearing shortly after.
How to interpret
Before purchasing any Dubai property, conduct a title search to confirm there are no injunctions or court blocks registered against it. An injunction against a property is not always visible to buyers unless specifically checked. Your agent or lawyer can request a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the developer, which reveals any registered encumbrances. The DLD can also confirm the property's registration status.
