- DCCJ540/2006
Stay dismissed because the 1st Defendant failed to prove the specific bill of lading terms and, even if proved, there was a strong risk that Clause 24 (9-month time bar) would operate in the PRC to extinguish plaintiffs' claims; granting a stay would likely cause prejudice, multiplicity of proceedings and possible futility, so plaintiffs showed strong cause not to grant a stay.
