Liprini v Liprini [2011] FCA 722

Liprini v Liprini [2011] FCA 722

The stay motion was dismissed because Driver FM had refused to annul the bankruptcy, leaving nothing capable of being stayed, and the matters relied on by Dr Liprini were unsupported allegations against the trustee or issues, if available at all, for the appeal rather than grounds for interlocutory stay relief. Leave to amend the Notice of Appeal to join Scott Pascoe was granted because it was not opposed.
