The courts are set to make the decision on sale of Playtech interests in William Hill Online. In an advisory note to the stock exchange on Friday, William Hill and the online software provider Playtech confirmed: "William Hill PLC (William Hill) confirms that, following a return court hearing on Thursday 17 March, an injunction is in place preventing Playtech from selling its stake in William Hill Online. "This injunction will remain in place until a further court hearing which is expected to occur in May or shortly thereafter." The court granted William Hill the injunction earlier this month after there were reports that Ladbrokes and Playtech were involved in business negotiations.
