To grant a temporary injunction, a plaintiff must demonstrate a prima facie case, balance of convenience, and irreparable hardship, with valid documentation supporting their claim.
The court upheld the trial Court's decision to grant a temporary injunction based on the principles of prima facie case, balance of convenience, and irreparable harm at the interlocutory stage.
An unregistered agreement to sell cannot establish possession for an interim injunction without a claim for specific performance, and credible evidence of possession is essential.
The court emphasized that an unregistered agreement to sell lacks sufficient evidentiary value for establishing possession, and interim injunctions require a clear prima facie case.
The main legal point established is that the trial court must consider the material documents and make reasoned decisions when dealing with temporary injunction applications.
Court must grant injunction to protect possession when a prima facie case, balance of convenience, and risk of irreparable harm are established.
A plaintiff must demonstrate a prima facie case, balance of convenience, and potential hardship to obtain a temporary injunction under Order XXXIX Rules 1 and 2 of CPC.
