\u2696\ufe0f 1. Legal Basis: Order XXXIX Rule 4 CPC<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under Order XXXIX, Rule\u202f4 CPC, any party aggrieved by an ex\u202fparte injunction may apply to the same court to have it discharged, varied, or set aside if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. The original application or supporting affidavit contained false or misleading statements of material fact, and the injunction was granted without notice to the opposite party; or<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. There is a material change of circumstance, or the injunction has caused undue hardship to the defendant .<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \n\n\n\n

    \ud83d\udcdd 2. Grounds to Vacate Ex Parte Order<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    False\/misleading statements in the plaintiff\u2019s pleadings or affidavit or concealment of material facts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Procedural non\u2011compliance, especially where no notice was issued before grant of injunction under Rule\u202f3 of Order XXXIX .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Excessive hardship or changed circumstances justifying relief to the defendant even if the order was made with notice .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Lack of jurisdiction by the granting court\u2014if applicable, can be a valid ground .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n\n\n

    \u2699\ufe0f 3. How to Proceed Step by Step<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Enter appearance in the suit and file your written statement promptly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. File an application under Order XXXIX Rule\u202f4 CPC (~\u201cvacating application\u201d) before the same trial court which granted the ex parte injunction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Clearly plead and support with evidence:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Misstatements or omissions in the initial injunction application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Changes in factual circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Undue hardship suffered due to the order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Any procedural irregularities (e.g., no notice).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Request the court to list the matter on priority, emphasizing that the order was granted ex parte.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. If the trial court delays or refuses to vacate the order:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        You may appeal under Order XLIII Rule 1(r) CPC where the order is appealable (e.g. an order under Rule\u202f1,\u202f2,\u202f4 etc.) .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Or file a High Court revision\/application under writ jurisdiction, pointing out non\u2011disposal or procedural lapses. According to A. Venkatasubbiah Naidu v. S. Chellappan (AIR 2000 SC 3032), if a court fails to decide Rule\u202f4 application within 30 days, the injunction order is deemed final and becomes appealable .
        \ud83d\udcda 4. Landmark Precedents & Key Judgments<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Case Key Legal Principle<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        A. Venkatasubbiah Naidu v. S. Chellappan (AIR 2000 SC 3032) Failure to dispose Rule\u202f4 application within 30 days makes order final and appealable .
        Ramrameshwari Devi v. Nirmala Devi (2011, SC) Provided guidelines on ex\u202fparte injunctions and emphasized expeditious vacation via Rule\u202f4 application .
        Dalpat Kumar v. Prahlad Singh (1991) Three\u2011fold test for injunction: prima facie case + balance of convenience + irreparable injury .
        Persuasive recent commentary (Raizada Law Associates, July 7, 2025) re-affirms same principles and practical guidelines on vacation, variation, appeal of interim injunctions under CPC Order XXXIX . \u2705 5. Suggested Draft Outline for Your Petition<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. Title: IA under Order XXXIX Rule\u202f4 read with Section\u202f151 CPC \u2014 to vacate ex\u202fparte injunction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. Facts: Suit No., court, status\u2014lack of notice, incomplete\/inaccurate pleading.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. Issues:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Material misstatement or suppression in initial application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Material change in circumstances or hardship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Delay in disposal of Rule\u202f4 application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          1. Reliefs Sought:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            Vacate injunction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Or at least modify\/dismiss it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Grant interim stay on injunction until decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            1. Prayer also for early listing and a finding on vexatious conduct (if applicable).
              \ud83e\udded Final Notes<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

              Immediately enter appearance and stage your Rule\u202f4 application, with detailed affidavit and documentary proof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Cite A. Venkatasubbiah Naidu for default disposal consequences and Ramrameshwari Devi for guidelines on ex\u202fparte. Also rely on Dalpat Kumar for test of relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              If the lower court delays or resists, escalate via appeal under Order XLIII or High Court revisions\/writ petitions, emphasising statutory timelines and lack of notice or equity.\u2696\ufe0f<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
