Plaintiff demonstrated a serious issue to be tried and, on balance of convenience, would suffer serious and irreparable prejudice if interlocutory relief were refused because disclosure to the I.R.S. before trial would nullify the principal remedy; the Bank was not shown to be in real jeopardy of successful contempt sanctions in the US given availability of the foreign compulsion/good faith defence and the factual record, therefore interlocutory injunctions should be granted until trial or further order.
