- High Court
Interim injunctions were granted in part: the grandchildren (second and third plaintiffs) may remain in possession of Halkett and Cridges and retain machinery pending further order provided they pay assessed rent and all outgoings from 7 March 2015 (rent to be split half to the estate and half to Philip) and subject to lease terms as modified; Philip is restrained from entering those properties. The decision rests on preservation of the status quo to avoid irreparable harm to applicants, adequate compensation by rent, and the trustees' duty to obtain market rental pending final determination.
