		Quintain told the City yesterday that if its bid were to be successful, it might delay any further plans to buy back its shares on the stock market.

	Opinion No. 29163
		Quintain sought a declaratory judgment determining that CNR's pipeline was wrongfully interfering with Quintain's planned mining operations and also sought injunctive relief compelling CNR to move the pipeline at CNR's sole expense.
		Quintain, on the other hand, argues that the circuit court applied a balancing test and determined that the benefits to the local communities from Quintain's mining operation outweighed CNR's interests, thus CNR's refusal to relocate the pipeline at its own expense created a nuisance.
		Furthermore, because the nuisance theory was the sole basis for the circuit court's injunction as to the McCormick tract, the injunction is dissolved as to that tract.
