Wu v Ling (No 5) [2017] NSWCA 125

Ms Wu had not filed and prosecuted her special leave application expeditiously as contemplated by the earlier stay order, the application to the High Court was filed out of time, and her explanations for the delay, including alleged communication breakdown with former solicitors and other demands on her time, were unsatisfactory and insufficient to justify granting a second stay.
