Procedural preferences
After a jury waiver, Page required a party to request findings or rulings to preserve general questions for appellate review.
“the record presents here no question of law or fact for review, except as to certain rulings upon the evidence”
Page reviewed preliminary injunctions for abuse of discretion and considered parallel litigation, solvency, and practical timing.
“There was no abuse of discretion in deny ing the injunction.”
