James Shook, appellant, was temporarily enjoined from communicating with, threatening or contacting appellees, R. L. Vaughan and Sandra Shook. The order granting the temporary injunction is void because it fails to set forth the reasons for its issuance or to set the underlying cause for a trial on the merits. See Tex. R. Civ. P. 683; InterFirst Bank San Felipe v. Paz Construction Company, 715 S.W.2d 640, 641 (Tex. 1986).

Accordingly, the order granting the temporary injunction is reversed, the temporary injunction is dissolved, and the cause is remanded for further proceedings.
