Lei Jiang Law Firm Secured Preliminary Injunction to Freeze Defendant’s Asset

On May 7, 2015, Federal Judge John R. Adams of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District granted our motion for a preliminary injunction freezing the assets of a corporate defendant.  In this case, Jieyi Electronics Co., Ltd. et al. v. Case Industries, Inc., et al. Case No. 5:14-CV-1996, we represented two manufacturers who sued their former customer, Case Industries, Inc. and its owners.  Our clients sought to recover over $1.3 million from defendants.  During the lawsuit, we motioned the court to freeze corporate defendant’s bank account and to stop the spending of corporate money by individual defendants.  Based on sufficient evidence, pertinent legal authorities, and convincing arguments, the court granted our motion.

Preliminary injunctions are called “extraordinary remedy.” They are very difficult to apply and rarely granted by courts.  In this case, our attorneys reviewed over a thousand pages of financial documents, carefully followed the money, timely detected all irregularities, prepared a thorough brief and reply, and argued convincingly in the court why this “extraordinary remedy” was the only remedy to reach the just result.  In the end, our efforts paid off, and while the case is not over, our clients now have a much better chance of recovering after the trial.
