The judge adopted a middle course of comity: to await, within reason, the opinion of the highest Australian court unless it was likely the documents would be put to immediate good use. On the facts and limited instructions as to use, the documents were not likely to be put to immediate good use; accordingly the appeal was adjourned sine die with liberty to either party to restore and costs of the application were ordered for the successful moving party with other costs reserved as directed.
