Catchwords

This application concerns the Plaintiff’s request for an interlocutory injunction, initially granted on an ex parte basis and subsequently heard inter partes. The dispute arises from the Caltex Retail Fuel Supply Agreement (CRFSA), under which the Defendant operated a Caltex service station on the subject property. The principal issue before the Court was whether the injunction should continue pending the disposal of the action. After considering the evidence and submissions, the Court found that the Plaintiff had established a serious question to be tried, that damages would not be an adequate remedy, that the balance of convenience favoured the Plaintiff, and that the circumstances justified mandatory interlocutory relief. The Court emphasised that the purpose of interlocutory relief is to preserve the subject matter of the dispute and prevent irreversible changes before trial. Accordingly, the Court granted interlocutory and mandatory injunctions restraining the Defendant from acting inconsistently with the CRFSA, with costs in the cause and liberty to apply.
