EQUITY — equitable remedies — injunctions — application for interlocutory injunction — where principal issue is whether injunctive relief would be declined on discretionary or non-discretionary grounds at a final hearing — where granting an injunction against the second defendant would effectively reduce him to the alternative of working for the plaintiff or being idle — where the practical effect of granting an injunction against the first defendant (or any alternative employer with whom the second defendant might seek to take up employment) would be the same as granting an injunction against second defendant directly and thus amount to specific enforcement of contract of personal service — where neither side will suffer significant prejudice whether injunction is or is not granted — where the application thus largely hinges on the strength of the case for final relief -interlocutory relief refused
