When can I ask the court to maintain the status quo?

Civil Cases & Dispute Resolution

A status-quo request can be appropriate where changing the existing situation would make the final relief ineffective.

Examples can include:

  • disputed property transfers;
  • demolition or construction;
  • disposal of disputed assets;
  • interference with possession.

The applicant must show why immediate protection is necessary.
