If you represent a client in qc for an ip case, you have the option to file before fc or qc sc. If you need to get an interlocutory injunction, choose qc bc it"s easier to obtain, less exposure, no security to post initially .

Interlocutory injunction is an adversarial debate: the other person is notified; plaintiff serves them not only w/ soc but also w/ motion seeking an interlocutory injunction.
