Definición

  • The term gag order—also known as an injunction, restraining order, restrictive order, or protective order—refers to a form of prior restraint which prohibits an individual or institution from disseminating information to those not authorized to receive it. Although the term is usually applied to orders issued by a judge in the context of an ongoing legal proceeding such as a trial, it can also include statutory or regulatory provisions promulgated by the legislative or executive branches.
