RIVERSIDE SCH. DIST. v. INT., LOCAL NO. 607

Appeals — Review — Equity — Preliminary injunction.

On an appeal from a decree granting a preliminary injunction, the appellate court will look only to see if there were no apparently reasonable grounds for the action of the court below, and it will not further consider the merits of the case or pass upon the reasons for or against such action unless it is plain that no such grounds existed or that the rules of law relied on are palpably wrong or clearly inapplicable.

Mr. Justice MUSMANNO and Mr. Justice COHEN dissented.

OPINION PER CURIAM, July 1, 1957:

These appeals are from a decree granting a preliminary injunction. As there appears to be reasonable grounds for the action of the court below and as the rules of law relied upon by the court are neither palpably wrong nor clearly inapplicable, the decree of the court below must be affirmed: see Lindenfelser v. Lindenfelser, 385 Pa. 342, 123 A.2d 626; New Kensington v. Municipal Authority of the City of New Kensington, 383 Pa. 182, 118 A.2d 149; and Cohen v. A. M. Byers Co., 363 Pa. 618, 70 A.2d 837. We do not reach the merits of the controversy on these appeals.

Decree affirmed at appellant's costs.

Mr. Justice MUSMANNO and Mr. Justice COHEN dissent.
