Terms Used In Louisiana Revised Statutes 37:924

  • Board: means the Louisiana State Board of Nursing. See Louisiana Revised Statutes 37:913
  • Injunction: An order of the court prohibiting (or compelling) the performance of a specific act to prevent irreparable damage or injury.
  • Temporary restraining order: Prohibits a person from an action that is likely to cause irreparable harm. This differs from an injunction in that it may be granted immediately, without notice to the opposing party, and without a hearing. It is intended to last only until a hearing can be held.

The board, through its executive director or officers, may obtain, without the necessity of posting bond, a temporary restraining order forbidding any individual from violating any of the provisions of this Part.  This temporary restraining order shall not be subject to release upon bond.  Upon obtaining the temporary restraining order, the board shall proceed in an action to convert the temporary restraining order into a permanent injunction.
