Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 21 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[O]ur review of the grant ... of a preliminary injunction is limited to determining whether there were any apparently reasonable grounds for the action of the trial court. We will interfere with the trial court’s decisions regarding a preliminary injunction only if there exist no grounds in the record to support the decree, or the rule of law relied upon was palpably erroneous or misapplied. It must be stressed that our review of a decision regarding a preliminary injunction does not reach the merits of the controversy. Palladinetti v. Penn Distribs., Inc., 695 A.2d 855 , 863 n. 11 (Pa.Super.1997) (citations and quotation marks omitted). “The court which is to exercise discretion in the matter of issuance of an injunction is the trial court and not the appellate court and the action of the trial court may be reviewed on appeal only in the case of a clear abuse of discretion but not otherwise.” Maritrans GP, Inc. v. Pepper, Hamilton & Scheetz, 529 Pa. 241 , 602 A.2d 1277, 1286 (1992).”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“Although courts are not super school boards and should not interfere with the discretionary exercise of a school board's power, a mandatory preliminary injunction interfering with that discretion is appropriate where a school board's action is based on a misconception of the law. This Court must therefore examine the factual and legal bases for the issuance of the preliminary injunction and determine whether there were apparently reasonable grounds for the trial court's action.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“be no broader than is necessary for the petitioner’s interim protection. Three County Services, Inc. v. Philadelphia Inquirer, 337 Pa.Super. 241 , 486 A.2d 997, 1000 (1985). “Furthermore, when a preliminary injunction contains mandatory provisions which will require a change in the position of the parties, it should be granted even more sparingly than one which is merely prohibitory.” Id.”
