It will only be ordered if damages will not provide adequate compensation and will not be <br \/> awarded in relation to contracts of personal service as the courts cannot determine whether the agreed <br \/> promise had been properly performed, or any other situation where the contract would require constant <br \/> supervision by the court. Specific performance is also not available where a contract has actually come <br \/> to an end but where there were obligations under the contract that should have been performed during <br \/> the term of the contract. In cases where common law damages are not an adequate remedy, especially <br \/> in \u00a0respect \u00a0to \u00a0contracts \u00a0of \u00a0land \u00a0and \u00a0contracts \u00a0where \u00a0the \u00a0subject \u00a0matter \u00a0is \u00a0valuable \u00a0and \u00a0unique, \u00a0such \u00a0as \u00a0<br \/> a rare piece of artwork, then the equitable remedy of specific performance would be the more suitable <br \/> remedy as the Court holds that damages would be inadequate compensation in this situation.<br \/> 26.1.3 Injunction<br \/> An \u00a0injunction \u00a0is \u00a0based \u00a0on \u00a0equity \u00a0and \u00a0is \u00a0a \u00a0discretionary \u00a0court \u00a0order \u00a0which \u00a0has \u00a0the \u00a0power \u00a0to \u00a0restrain \u00a0<br \/> a \u00a0person \u00a0from \u00a0doing \u00a0a \u00a0certain \u00a0act \u00a0such \u00a0as \u00a0breaching \u00a0a \u00a0contract \u00a0and \u00a0consist \u00a0of \u00a0a \u00a0number \u00a0of \u00a0types \u00a0of \u00a0<br \/> injunction. \u00a0An \u00a0injunction \u00a0is \u00a0a \u00a0direction \u00a0to \u00a0a \u00a0party \u00a0not \u00a0to \u00a0do \u00a0something, \u00a0such \u00a0as \u00a0to \u00a0not \u00a0to \u00a0persist \u00a0with \u00a0<br \/> a \u00a0contractual \u00a0breach. \u00a0In \u00a0this \u00a0context, \u00a0an \u00a0injunction \u00a0is \u00a0an \u00a0order \u00a0that \u00a0restrains, \u00a0that \u00a0is, \u00a0prohibits \u00a0a \u00a0party \u00a0<br \/> from breaching its contractual obligations and duties.<br \/> An injunction is not given in all situations, and is not given where, for example, the plaintiff has been <br \/> guilty \u00a0of \u00a0delay, \u00a0or \u00a0the \u00a0plaintiff \u00a0is \u00a0in \u00a0breach \u00a0of \u00a0his \u00a0or \u00a0her \u00a0legal \u00a0obligations \u00a0under \u00a0the \u00a0valid \u00a0and \u00a0legally \u00a0<br \/> enforceable contract.
