SABERS, Justice
(concurring in result).
I write specially to point out that this court had the power to grant a discretionary or intermediate appeal despite the language of SDCL 15-6-65(b). SDCL 15-26A-13 provides in part:
An appeal from an intermediate order made before trial as prescribed by subdivision (6) of § 15-26A-3 may be sought by filing a petition for permission to appeal, together with proof of service thereof upon all other parties to the action in circuit court, with the clerk of the Supreme Court within ten days after notice of entry of such order.*
In my view, the language of the statute simply means that an appeal of right may not be taken from a temporary restraining order. I continue to believe the intermediate appeal was improvidently granted and, accordingly, I concur in result.

 SDCL 15-26A-3(6) provides:
Appeals to the Supreme Court from the circuit court may be taken as provided in this title from:

(6) Any other intermediate order made before trial, any appeal under this subdivision, however, being not a matter of right but of
sound judicial discretion, and to be allowed by the Supreme Court in the manner provided by rules of such court only when the court considers that the ends of justice will be served by determination of the questions involved without awaiting the final determination of the action or proceeding^]
