## Opinion text

ROBERTS, J.,
dissents, believing that the record reflects the existence of apparently reasonable grounds supporting the chancellor’s grant of a preliminary injunction. He would therefore reverse the order of the Commonwealth Court and affirm the decree of the Court of Common Pleas of Lackawanna County.
EAGEN and NIX, JJ., did not participate in the consideration or decision of this case.
