Salthill shop refused injunction preventing sale of frozen fruit tubs from kiosk 350m away
"Judge Siobhan Stack said the contract between the parties “was not terribly clear”, but the balance of convenience favoured not granting an injunction.
She said an injunction would have meant shutting down part of the kiosk business at the busiest time of the year for such outlets.
Blackrock Cottage was also not able to show there was any threat to its business and no evidence of books and records was presented to show a catastrophic or even very serious effect on the business from the kiosk, she said.
The judge also said there was a complete dispute between the parties about the meaning of the agreement between them and that would be a matter for the hearing of the full case."
