Delhi High Court Removes OnePlus One Ban In India

On Wednesday, Delhi High Court lifted the interim ban which was imposed on OnePlus One in India. Under this ban, OnePlus was not allowed to import or sale its OnePlus One smartphone in the Indian market. But now Delhi High Court has announced that the company can resume its import and sales in the country.

According to the High Court judges, this case wasn’t of an ad-interim injunction as “prima-facie neither (OnePlus or Micromax) competes nor eats into the territory of the other.” The case has been now given back to judge Manmohan, who will hear arguments from all parties includling Cyanogen, OnePlus and Micromax on January 7th, 2015.

“An ad-interim injunction is normally issued when a very strong prima-facie case is made out by the plaintiff and the injury to the plaintiff is writ large if the defendant is not restrained from doing the activity which causes the injury to the plaintiff. In such a case the balance of convenience would obviously be in favour of the plaintiff. Since interim injunctions affect the right of a defendant, the principle of natural justice would warrant the defendant to be heard before an order adverse to the defendant’s right is passed,” the court said.
