Summary and Facts:<\/strong><br>In Edisijuta Parking Sdn Bhd v TH Universal Builders Sdn Bhd &amp; Anor [2025] 5 MLJ 524, Edisijuta Parking Sdn Bhd entered into a five-year carpark operation agreement with Bukit Damansara Development Sdn Bhd in 2019, later assigned to TH Universal Builders Sdn Bhd after it acquired the building. In April 2024, Edisijuta proposed a three-year extension, which it claimed was accepted, but the second respondent later notified that the contract would expire and appointed NES Solutions Sdn Bhd as the new operator. Edisijuta alleged losses of RM690,000 and claimed that NESS\u2019s director, a former employee, had confidential information. Its letters of demand were ignored, and NESS denied the alleged extension.<br>In the High Court, the appellant\u2019s interlocutory injunction application was dismissed, the ex parte injunction was set aside, and the suit was struck out. Following this, the appellant filed an application for an Erinford injunction at the Court of Appeal to preserve the status quo pending appeal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Legal Issues:<\/strong><br>\u2022 Whether an ex-parte Erinford injunction in the Court of Appeal can be granted by a single judge.<br>\u2022 Whether the ex parte Erinford injunction should be heard inter partes under Rule 50 of the Rules of the Court of Appeal 1994.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Court\u2019s Findings:<\/strong><br>\u2022 A single judge may grant an ex-parte Erinford injunction to prevent prejudice pending appeal.<br>\u2022 Any \u201caggrieved party\u201d may later apply under s 44(3) CJA before a three-judge panel to vary or discharge the injunction.<br>\u2022 There are three options available for ex parte application;-<br>(a) Hear ex parte;<br>(b) Hear as \u201copposed ex parte\u201d application; or<br>(c) Convert it to an inter partes hearing (Rule 50 RCA).<br>\u2022 The court preferred the third option namely inter partes as the general rule to prevent abuse and save judicial resources.<br>\u2022 2 conditions must be fulfilled by the second respondent in order to obtain Erinford injunction namely;<br>i) Appellant must give an undertaking to pay damages if the injunction is later aside or appeal fails.<br>ii) Appellant must deposit RM200,000 as security in the respondent\u2019s solicitor\u2019s client account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Practical Implications:<\/strong><br>This decision affirms several important legal principles including;<br>\u2022 The limitation power for a single judge under section 44(1) of the Courts of Judicature Act 1966 to grant an interim orders to prevent prejudice pending appeal.<br>\u2022 The Court of Appeal encouraged converting ex parte motions into inter partes hearings (Rule 50, RCA 1994) to save time and prevent abuse of court process. This promotes judicial efficiency and fairness between parties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Edisijuta Parking Sdn Bhd v TH Universal Builders Sdn Bhd &#038; Anor [2025] 5 MLJ 524, the Court of Appeal clarified that ex parte Erinford injunctions at the appellate stage should only be granted in truly exceptional circumstances where giving notice would defeat the purpose of the order.

Wong Kian Kheong JCA held that, under rule 50 of the Rules of the Court of Appeal 1994, such applications should generally be heard inter partes to ensure fairness and prevent abuse. Exercising powers under section 44(1) of the Courts of Judicature Act 1964, the Court granted a conditional interim Erinford injunction pending appeal, fortified by a RM200,000 deposit and an undertaking to pay damages. The ruling provides clear guidance on balancing urgency, procedural fairness, and judicial efficiency in appellate injunctions.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/erinford-injunction-court-of-appeal-clarifies-ex-parte-erinford-injunctions-are-the-exception-not-the-rule\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"zh-TW","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/erinford-injunction-court-of-appeal-clarifies-ex-parte-erinford-injunctions-are-the-exception-not-the-rule\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"zh-TW","@id":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/erinford-injunction-court-of-appeal-clarifies-ex-parte-erinford-injunctions-are-the-exception-not-the-rule\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/injuection-1.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/injuection-1.jpg","width":1200,"height":630},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/erinford-injunction-court-of-appeal-clarifies-ex-parte-erinford-injunctions-are-the-exception-not-the-rule\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"ERINFORD INJUNCTION \u2013 COURT OF APPEAL CLARIFIES: EX-PARTE ERINFORD INJUNCTIONS ARE THE EXCEPTION, NOT THE RULE"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/#website","url":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/","name":"Yew Huoi, How &amp; Associates | Leading Malaysia Law Firm","description":"YHA Law Firm is a leading law firm in Malaysia.Specialises in handling Civil,Maritime,Shipping Matters,Company Law,Family Law,Real Estate and many more","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"zh-TW"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/#organization","name":"Yew Huoi, How & Associates Law Firm | yhalaw.com.my","url":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"zh-TW","@id":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/YHA-Law-Logo-White-BG-New@2x-e1668772571446.png","contentUrl":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/YHA-Law-Logo-White-BG-New@2x-e1668772571446.png","width":2080,"height":369,"caption":"Yew Huoi, How & Associates Law Firm | yhalaw.com.my"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/yhalaw"]},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/#\/schema\/person\/f778c60834a29c5ec215ab62d3207bef","name":"YHA Admin","sameAs":["https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my"]}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6010"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6010"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6010\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6013,"href":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6010\/revisions\/6013"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6012"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6010"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6010"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yhalaw.com.my\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6010"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
