WYNDHAM COMPANY v. WYNDHAM HOTEL COMPANY

The trial court properly exercised its discretion in continuing the existing temporay restraining order, albeit with modification not to defendants' satisfaction, pending its issuance of a decision on the merits. On any view of the matter, the status quo should be maintained until judgment in the action is rendered ( see, Preston Corp. v Fabrication Enters., 68 NY2d 397, 405).
