Pascoe v Liprini [2012] NSWSC 345

Pascoe v Liprini [2012] NSWSC 345

There was no proper basis to stay the writ of possession. The same application had already been made and rejected by Ball J on 8 March 2012, there was no apparent material change of circumstances, and the fresh application was an abuse of process. The application also required leave, which had not been sought.
