In the case of a financial service provider, the High Court may not grant an application unless of the opinion that the conduct sought to be restrained is likely to prejudice or negate the effect or implementation of a decision that the Ombudsman may make if the Ombudsman were to find the complaint to which the conduct relates is upheld, substantially upheld or partially upheld.<\/p>\n
