The Court dismissed both stay applications because the CFI should not assume jurisdiction to suspend the committal pending the defendant's CFA leave application (power rests with Court of Appeal/CFA) and the defendant failed to demonstrate an arguable sentencing appeal; the court activated the committal order, directed return of the $500,000 paid into court to the defendant, and awarded costs to the plaintiff.
