First one is correct. "...that was issued against us" is a relative clause, so it should go immediately after the noun.

Answer

"We need to get that injunction THAT was issued against us last Wednesday in federal court struck down/dismissed" seems like the right one.

I think even better would be "We need to get the injunction that was..." unless you were specifically making a distinction between two different injunctions.

Answer

please
