An extraordinary procedure where a court issues an order to the effect that proceedings in a second jurisdiction should not proceed. The injunction is usually 1) based on the principle of forum non conveniens (infra); and requires 2) that the first court is more convenient to the parties; 3) a motion of forum non conveniens has been made in the second jurisdiction and has failed; and 4) that the complainant will not be unduly disadvantaged by proceeding in the first jurisdiction. Examples of the injunction are cases where real (immoveable) property in the first jurisdiction is involved or where there is a jurisdiction or arbitration clause calling for proceedings in the first jurisdiction or where a law of the first jurisdiction specifically forbids suit on a certain subject, e.g. claims for damages caused by asbestos produced in the first jurisdiction.
