Forchelli, Curto, Deegan, Schwartz, Mineo, Cohn & Terrana, LLP, Uniondale, N.Y. (Daniel P. Deegan and Richard C. Goldberg of counsel), for appellant. Garfunkel Wild, P.C., Great Neck, N.Y. (Michael J. Keane, Kevin G. Donoghue, and Jason Hsi of counsel), for respondent.
In an action, inter alia, to recover damages for breach of contract, and for declaratory and injunctive relief, the plaintiff appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Driscoll, J.), entered November 29, 2010, which denied its motion for a preliminary injunction.
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with costs.
To obtain a preliminary injunction, a movant must demonstrate, by clear and convincing evidence, (1) a likelihood of success on the merits, (2) irreparable injury absent a preliminary injunction, and (3) a balancing of the equities in the movant's favor ( see CPLR 6301; Aetna Ins. Co. v. Capasso, 75 N.Y.2d 860, 862, 552 N.Y.S.2d 918, 552 N.E.2d 166; Arcamone–Makinano v. Britton Prop., Inc., 83 A.D.3d 623, 920 N.Y.S.2d 362; S.J.J.K. Tennis, Inc. v. Confer Bethpage, LLC, 81 A.D.3d 629, 916 N.Y.S.2d 789; Volunteer Fire Assn. of Tappan, Inc. v. County of Rockland, 60 A.D.3d 666, 667, 883 N.Y.S.2d 706). The decision whether to grant or deny a preliminary injunction rests in the sound discretion of the Supreme Court ( see Doe v. Axelrod, 73 N.Y.2d 748, 750, 536 N.Y.S.2d 44, 532 N.E.2d 1272; Rowland v. Dushin, 82 A.D.3d 738, 917 N.Y.S.2d 702; Trump on the Ocean, LLC v. Ash, 81 A.D.3d 713, 715, 916 N.Y.S.2d 177; City of Long Beach v. Sterling Am. Capital, LLC, 40 A.D.3d 902, 837 N.Y.S.2d 572). Under the circumstances of this case, the Supreme Court providently exercised its discretion in denying the plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction.
