2. This is an appeal filed under Section 104 read with Order XLIII Rule 1(r) of the Code of Civil Procedure,1908 (for short ‘the Code’) challenging the order dated 18.02.2025 passed by the Court of the learned Civil Judge (Senior Division) No.3, Kamrup (M) at Guwahati (hereinafter referred to as ‘the learned Trial Court’) in Misc. (J) Case No.126/2025 arising out of Title Suit No.93/2025.
3. The challenge so made to the impugned order 18.02.2025 are primarily on the grounds that the said order which is an order of injunction was passed by the learned Trial Court without any discussion to the three golden principles for grant of an injunctio
An injunction requires satisfaction of three principles: prima facie case, balance of convenience, and irreparable injury; failure to apply these principles renders the order unreasonable.
An injunction requires proof of a prima facie case, balance of convenience, and irreparable injury, which the Trial Court failed to establish.
The court emphasized the need to consider the maintainability of the suit and the balance of convenience before granting an injunction. It also highlighted the relevance of the time fixed for perform....
Merely having prima-facie case would not entitle an applicant to an injunction. The applicant has to satisfy all the three ingredients.
Court could not have come into finding that there was a balance of convenience in not granting an injunction.
Injunctions require specificity and must satisfy the criteria of a prima facie case, balance of convenience, and irreparable harm.
Merely making vague allegation without material particulars, in opinion of this Court, do not lead to existence of a prima-facie case.
Even a trespasser cannot be dispossessed without following the due process of law - If the plaintiffs are in possession of the suit land, the plaintiffs ought to be protected by way of an injunction ....
The court established that for a temporary injunction, a prima facie case, irreparable loss, and balance of convenience must all be satisfied.
