    The court found the caveator failed to demonstrate any contrary interest in the deceased's estate; her allegations were unparticularised, unsupported and constituted an abuse of process given delay and refusal to commence proper probate proceedings; therefore the Registrar's order removing the caveat was justified, the appeal was dismissed, the refusal to grant a stay was upheld, and costs were ordered against the caveator.
