The opinion

McCOMB, J.

I dissent. In the Englund v. Chavez cases, I agree with the decision of the Court of Appeal and would affirm the trial court’s granting the injunctions, as modified by the Court of Appeal, First Appellate District, Division Two, in the opinion prepared by Mr. Presiding Justice Taylor ( 101 Cal.Rptr. 54 ). I would reverse the judgment in Furukawa Farms, Inc. v. Chavez, for the reasons stated by Mr. Justice Compton in the opinion prepared by him for the Court of Appeal, Second Appellate District, Division Two ( 102 Cal.Rptr. 271 ).
