Injunction by a salvor

Upon a salvor (section 574 (1)) filing a corresponding petition, the court responsible for hearing the main action may, at its equitable discretion and in due consideration of the facts of the case, issue an injunction obligating the debtor of a claim to a salvage reward or special compensation to make a fair and reasonable interim payment to the salvor; at the same time, the court may also stipulate the terms of such performance. Such an injunction may be issued even if the pre-requisites stipulated in sections 935 and 940 of the Code of Civil Procedure have not been met.
