Petitioners sought police protection to implement an ex parte temporary injunction in a civil suit; the trial court had rejected that application. The High Court held that subsequent appellate restoration and grant of temporary injunction rendered the petition infructuous and declined to pass orders.

Court on 25.05.2016 and later, the order was varied by the Trial Court and again, the Appellate Court has granted temporary injunction. In view of the subsequent event, I am of the considered view that the application filed by the petitioners-plaintiffs seeking police protection based on the ex parte temporary injunction would not survive for consideration and no orders are required to be passed in this petition. It is needless to observe that it is open for the plaintiffs in O.S.No.705/2016 to seek police assistance
if the temporary injunction order granted by the Appellate Court is violated by the defendants, in accordance with law and if such a prayer is made, it is always open for the defendants to oppose such application.
