Question

what can a judge issue to legally make something happen or stop something from happening?
○ an ultimatum
○ an obscure opinion
○ an injunction
○ an emergency decree

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• "an ultimatum" is a final demand, not a judicial order.
• "an obscure opinion" refers to an unclear viewpoint, not a legal directive.
• "an injunction" is a court order (issued by a judge) to compel or prohibit an action, matching the description.
• "an emergency decree" is typically issued by an executive (e.g., a government official), not a judge in this context.

Answer:

C. an injunction
