Amends 28 U.S.C. chapter 85 by adding § 1370 limiting district courts to injunctions applicable only to named parties, with a narrow exception for multi-state cases via three-judge panels. Restricts established federal court equity powers under Article III and 28 U.S.C. § 1331, and curtails the principal remedy available in civil-rights class actions brought under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(b)(2), which authorizes injunctive relief applicable to a defined class rather than individual plaintiffs.
