On appeal from the trial court’s grant of an injunction ordering him to hand over control of plaintiff First One Group, LLC’s adult daycare center, defendant Jerry Kim, the former manager of the center, argues that the evidence does not support the judgment. We disagree and affirm. An interlocutory injunction is a device used to maintain the status quo of the parties pending final adjudication of the case. Lee v. Environmental Pest &c. Control , 271 Ga. 371, 373 516 SE2d 76 1999. The power to grant an injunction should not be exercised except in clear and urgent cases where there is a vital necessity to prevent a party from being damaged and left without a remedy. Kennedy v. W. M. Sheppard Lumber Co. , 261 Ga. 145, 146 401 SE2d 515 1991. Generally, a trial court’s discretion in granting or denying an injunction will not be disturbed on appeal as an abuse of discretion unless there was no evidence upon which to base the ruling or it was based on an erroneous interpretation of the law. Id. at 146; Ledbetter Bros., Inc. v. Floyd County , 237 Ga. 22, 23 226 SE2d 730 1976. Atlanta Area Broadcasting v. James Brown Enterprises , 263 Ga. App. 388, 392-393 587 SE2d 853 2003. So viewed, the record shows that in January 2010, Kim was the manager of First One’s adult day healthcare center in Norcross. The center’s operating agreement provided that the manager could be terminated “for any reason upon the agreement of all non-managing Members ,” or shareholders, “provided that each and every non-managing Member combined, ignoring the provisions of a Quorum as otherwise defined, consist of a two-third 2/3 majority of the voting shares of the Company.” Emphasis supplied.
During the week of January 11, the director of the center discovered that Kim’s wife had apparently forged the signatures of attendees for the purpose of increasing the center’s Medicaid billings. The director twice confronted Kim about these discrepancies, but was told that it was “none of her business.” The director then gave Kim two weeks’ notice of her resignation.
