Following my question yesterday regarding an injunction, is there a way where you can request an injunction for more than one individual (not related to the person who is being targeted). How does that work and also what is the process for the N16A form? On gov.uk it states that this form needs to be used as part of the process (not on its own) and I am not sure what this means? Thanks so much, Emma

Hello Joshua, I wondered if you had a reply to my query, please? Thank you, Emma

I'm very sorry for the delay in reverting to you. For reasons unknown to me, the thread was closed meaning I was unable to respond. I'm not sure if this was at your request. I requested that is reopened. May I continue to assist in respect of the above?

please Joshua, I hadn’t required the query be closed so really appreciate your help in getting the question re opened.

I'm very sorry - I have no idea why that happened then. I'm grateful for your patience and apologise for the inconvenience caused.

May I clarify if you have already made an application for an injunction against one individual or whether you have not yet made an application for an injunction please?

Hello Joshua, thank you. I can confirm that no injunction requests have been made yet, however, this has now become urgent as it’s been 3 months and my sister receives abuse on a daily basis, which she understandably finds really stressful.

Hello there, can I please have a reply to my question?
I am very sorry for the delay in reverting to you. For reasons that are not clear to me this thread keeps getting closed meaning I can't reply to it. I did prepare a reply but was unable to post it due to the above. 

The reply I attempted to post was as follows:

Thank you. It is open to you to make a claim for an injunction against more than one individual and if this is on the same facts and you are making an application for the same injunction but against more than one individual, this can be achieved by simply issuing the claim form against more than one claimant. 


As you will be aware, you cannot apply for an injunction using form N16A on its own but rather, need to issue an application using form N16A together with usually form N1 or occasionally N208 where there is no dispute as regards facts. 


Form N1 (or if applicable N208) allows for you to include more than one claimant and more than one defendant:
