EVANS-FREKE v. SHOWCASE CONTR. CORP

ORDERED that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

To obtain the drastic remedy of a preliminary injunction, a movant must demonstrate (1) a likelihood of success on the merits, (2) irreparable harm if the injunction is denied, and (3) a balance of the equities in favor of granting the injunction ( see Matter of Merscorp, Inc. v. Romaine, 295 A.D.2d 431, 432; Peterson v. Corbin, 275 A.D.2d 35, 37; Laro Maintenance Corp. v. Culkin, 255 A.D.2d 560). Here, the plaintiff failed to establish a clear right to relief under the foregoing standard. Thus, the Supreme Court properly denied his motion for a preliminary injunction.
