The court granted a stay until the conclusion of the Shunyi PRC proceedings because the two proceedings involve the same parties and common live issues about division of matrimonial assets; the Mediation Agreement is to be treated as a PRC court order rather than a private contract, creating a real risk of inconsistent rulings; extension of time to file the stay application was granted under Order 3 Rule 5 considering merits and the coexistence of inherent jurisdiction.
