Read a random definition: use/derivative-use immunity

A quick definition of irreparable damage or injury:

Term: Irreparable damage or injury

Definition: Irreparable damage or injury means harm that cannot be fixed by money. For example, cutting down trees that provide shade, polluting a stream, not giving a child medicine they need, not supporting a building that could collapse, tearing down a structure, or other actions that cannot be undone. When someone causes irreparable damage or injury, a judge may order them to stop or take action to fix the harm. This is called equitable relief, and it is a court order that requires positive action to be taken, like stopping pollution or fixing a dangerous wall.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Irreparable damage or injury refers to harm that cannot be fixed or compensated for with money. This type of harm can be caused by actions or omissions such as cutting down trees, polluting a stream, not giving a child necessary medication, not supporting an excavation that may cause a building to collapse, or tearing down a structure. When irreparable damage or injury occurs, a judge may order an injunction, writ, temporary restraining order, or other judicial assistance to prevent further harm.

Examples:

  • When a company pollutes a river, it can cause irreparable damage to the ecosystem and the wildlife that depend on it. This type of harm cannot be fixed with money.
  • If a contractor fails to properly support an excavation, it can cause the building to collapse, resulting in irreparable damage to the structure and potentially harming people inside.
  • If a landlord tears down a tenant's home without proper notice or compensation, it can cause irreparable damage to the tenant's life and livelihood.

These examples illustrate how irreparable damage or injury can occur in various situations and how it cannot be fixed with money alone. In these cases, a judge may need to order equitable relief to prevent further harm and protect those affected.
