    Citation
    LAM ROGERIO SOU FUNG v. TAN SOON GIN GEORGE
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCA2576/2005

    The applicant failed to establish good reasons for a stay: the appeal did not show strong prospects of success on credibility-based findings, and the applicant failed to prove an appreciable risk that the appeal would be rendered nugatory since the respondent's sworn evidence of assets and collection was not sufficiently impugned; accordingly the stay and interim stay were refused and the funds paid into court were ordered released to the successful party with costs against the applicant.
