1Opinion of the Court

JOHN W. LORD, Jr., District Judge.

This action was brought in this Court for an injunction and damages under the “Dealer’s Day in Court Act,” 15 U.S.C.A. §§ 1221-1225. Plaintiffs sought to restrain termination of their franchise to sell and service Ford Motor products. Since the agency has been terminated by Ford Motor Company during the pendency of the action, they now seek (in addition to their claim for damages; not presently at issue) to enjoin defendant from refusing to furnish Ford Motor products to them.
