Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM:

This case reached the court on petition for certiorari to review the action of the trial court in denying a temporary injunction. In view of the rule that such an order is in large measure discretionary and because abuse on the part of the chancellor has not been made to appear the petition is denied.

BROWN, C. J., WHITFIELD, TERRELL, BUFORD, THOMAS and ADAMS, JJ., concur. CHAPMAN, J., dissents.
