Clameur de Haro

Representation of Sheppard re Powell is a Jersey Court of Appeal case relating to eviction injunctions. The case resolved around Powell raising a clameur de haro to prevent eviction and Sheppard appealed against the subsequent automatic injunction preventing eviction. The court ruled that a clameur could not be used to block court orders and fined Powell £50 for incorrect usage.
