Read the rule - both terms are included in Fed Rule 65 governing injunctions and restraining orders. A Temporary Restraining Order is usually the first step toward obtaining a perm net injunction which is always the goal.

I’m not talking about the rule’s nomenclature, I’m talking about factual reality. Temporary restraining orders are a type of injunction.
![Merch Traffic, LLC v. DOES 1-100, 686 F. Supp. 3d 380 - ... [1] Two preliminary things. First, temporary restraining orders are a type of injunction, and the other common sorts of injunctions (preliminary and permanent) are not before the Court at the moment. Accordingly, for simplicity's sake, the Plaintiff's request for a temporary restraining order is referred to here as a request for an injunction. Second, Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(b)(1)(B) sets standards that must generally be met before the Court can enter injunctive relief on an ex parte basis, as the Plaintiff requests here. See generally Vuitton v. White, 945 F.2d 569, 572-73 (3d. Cir. 1991); see also Rovio Ent. Ltd. v. Royal Plush Toys, Inc., 907 F. Supp. 2d 1086, 1089, 1093-94 (N.D. Cal. 2012). These standards have been satisfied, largely for the reasons stated by the Plaintiff. See First Holt Declaration 11 12, 17, 19; Second Holt Declaration 11 5-10; Burns Certificate 11 8, 10-11, 13; Memorandum at 14-15; Supplemental Memorandum at 1-2.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:jkj7qm4o4kwjbk6geoatopu3/bafkreiewth237lyd76rrzea7u2hohlmhuar7g5shiszp5j7awy36hnukoy@jpeg)
