בית המשפט העליון קיבל בקשת רשות ערעור והורה על צו זמני למניעת התקשרות של עיריית בני ברק עם ספק של מתקני משחקים אשר נבחר על-ידה ללא עריכת מכרז. בית המשפט לא קיבל טענת עיריית בני-ברק כי המדובר הוא ב-"ספק יחיד" כמשמעותו בתקנה 3(4) לתקנות העיריות (מכרזים), אשר מעניקה פטור לרשות המקומית מחובת עריכת מכרז. בית המשפט קבע, כי לא תתקבל טענה לפיה הטובין המבוקשים הם מסוג כה ספציפי באופן שמצמצם את מספר הספקים הרלוונטיים לספק אחד בלבד, מבלי שבפועל תהיה הצדקה להיות הקריטריונים כה מחמירים וכך שבעצם הקריטריונים נתפרו בדיוק למידותיו של אותו ספק יחיד. כך, לא מתקבל על הדעת שמתקני המשחקים היחידים שמתאימים לילדי בני-ברק הם מתקנים המיוצרים על-ידי יצרן מסוים, ומן הראוי שוועדת מכרזים תתרשם מכלל ההיצע בשוק מתקני המשחקים בטרם יוחלט מי הספק שהעירייה תתקשר איתו.
