- Case number
- HCCL2/2011
The application for a stay was dismissed because the court formed a preliminary view that the appeal was arguable but not strongly likely to succeed, and the defendants failed to show additional compelling reasons (beyond the risk of wasted costs) to justify a stay; consequently the court exercised its discretion to refuse the stay and instead made case management directions to proceed with quantum assessment after the Court of Appeal decision.
