Raymond Ltd. ...Plaintiffs

versus

V.S. Venkatesh Sole Prop. Of M/s Lookmen Dresses.....Defendant

Mr. Rahul Chitnis i/b Rajani Associates for the Plaintiff. None for the Defendant.

CORAM: A.P. DESHPANDE, J. DATED: 28TH APRIL, 2008.

P.C.:

1. Heard the learned counsel for the Plaintiff. The counsel for the defendant is absent. By an adinterim order dated 2112 2006 this court has granted prayers in terms of prayer clauses (a) and (c). The prayer (a) pertains to restraining the defendant by grant of a temporary injunction from using the mark Raymond'or any other mark identical or similar to the Plaintiff'strade mark Raymond'. Whereas the prayer clause (c) pertains to passing of goods. None appears for defendant despite service. As the adinterim order is already granted in favour of the Plaintiff since December 2006, in the absence of any reply to the Notice of Motion I deem it appropriate to make the adinterim order absolute. In the result, the adinterim order dated 21122006 passed by this court is made absolute and to operate till decision of the suit. Notice of Motion is disposed of.
