Description
Alpine Gulf, Incorporated and its parent company, Alpine Geophysical Associates, Incorporated, appeal from an order granting a temporary injunction prohibiting the transfer of assets from Alpine Gulf to either Alpine Geophysical or any of Alpine Geophysical's subsidiaries. Plaintiff-appellee Salvatore Valentino filed his original petition on December 14, 1977 seeking a temporary restraining order, temporary injunction, and ultimately a permanent injunction against Alpine Gulf and Alpine Geophysical. Appellee alleged that he had purchased nineteen percent of Alpine Gulf's stock, worth $190,000, and had loaned the same company $95,000. He claimed that these investments were induced by fraud and misrepresentation on the part of Alpine Gulf and Geophysical. Valentino further alleged that in September of 1977 he had entered into a contract with appellants which gave him the right to recoup all of his money, and that in November of 1977, he had exercised his rights under the September contract. Valentino additionally accused Alpine Gulf and Geophysical and the companies' officers, directors and management of conspiring to loot Alpine Gulf of its assets and transferring and attempting to transfer such assets to Geophysical. Valentino, in his prayer, asked that upon final hearing, the temporary injunction be made permanent; requested a judgment ordering specific performance of the alleged obligations, and a damage award.
