Case Note & Summary
The appellants, who were plaintiffs in Special Civil Suit No.153 of 2008 before the 4th Joint Civil Judge (Sr.Dn.), Amravati, filed an appeal against the order refusing to grant interim injunction. The trial court had held that the plaintiffs failed to prove a prima facie case, balance of convenience was not in their favor, and they would not suffer irreparable loss if injunction was not granted. The High Court, after hearing both sides, found no reason to interfere with the trial court's detailed reasoned order and dismissed the appeal. The court noted that the appeal was devoid of merits and the trial court's findings were based on proper appreciation of facts and law.
