Facts of the Case
Background
The applicants sought an interdict to prevent the respondent from supplying components allegedly produced from moulds/patterns furnished by the first applicant to any person other than the applicants. The applicants claimed they supplied wooden moulds to the respondent in 1994 for manufacturing components exclusively for them, but the respondent now copies these moulds to supply other customers.
