The court dismissed the stay application. It held the 4th defendant had not shown staying Hong Kong proceedings until final determination of Japanese actions was necessary or justified: the 4th defendant is not a party to those actions, could seek access to Japanese court files as a non-party, could seek evidence from its subcontractor Mitsui, and the proposed stay would cause injustice and grave prejudice to plaintiffs by indefinite delay; the circumstances were not rare or compelling.
