Opinion of the Court
GRIFFIN, Chief Judge.

GRIFFIN, Chief Judge.

Appellant, Mitts, Boyle & Assoc., Inc., appeals a temporary injunction, complaining of several procedural and substantive defects. We agree that because the findings required for issuance of a temporary injunction are lacking1 and because no bond was required,2 entry of the injunction was error. We remand for the lower court promptly to enter a proper temporary injunction or to dissolve it. We observe further that if the court’s reasons for issuance of an injunction are dependent on any disputed fact, the court should conduct an evidentiary hearing.
