The defendant only advanced arguable grounds of appeal and failed to demonstrate good reasons or that the appeal would be rendered nugatory; in the balance the risk of prejudice and loss to the successful plaintiff (already deprived of principal, defendant bankrupt, uncertain forced‑sale value) outweighed the defendant's contentions, therefore the application for a stay was dismissed and the plaintiff was granted retrospective leave to file its Respondent's Notice with costs awarded to the plaintiff.
