Can minority shareholder delay a merger with an injunction / restraining order?

Just curious if the acquirer acting as a white knight seems to be overpaying for a sinking ship, can a minority shareholder step in with an injunction, trying to delay the deal? If the deal is just being rumoured without any SPA signed, I guess delaying even a week could actually turn the table if target co crash another 30-40%?
