The court held that Enclosure 236 satisfied the need to maintain status quo pending appeal and granted a stay subject to a security deposit of RM100,000 and costs in the cause; Enclosure 251 failed because applicants did not establish special circumstances relating to enforcement of the judgment and disciplinary consequences are not a proper ground for stay, therefore it was dismissed with no order as to costs.

Procedural Posture

Civil Suit Land Dispute / Interlocutory Application for Stay of Execution Pending Appeal

Legal Issues

  1. 1 Whether a stay of execution pending appeal should be granted
  2. 2 Whether the applicants established 'special circumstances' required to grant a stay
  3. 3 Whether the appeal, if successful, would be rendered nugatory by execution

Ratio Decidendi

The court held that Enclosure 236 satisfied the need to maintain status quo pending appeal and granted a stay subject to a security deposit of RM100,000 and costs in the cause; Enclosure 251 failed because applicants did not establish special circumstances relating to enforcement of the judgment and disciplinary consequences are not a proper ground for stay, therefore it was dismissed with no order as to costs.

Court Disposition

Enclosure 236 allowed subject to conditions; Enclosure 251 dismissed

Orders

  • Enclosure 236: stay of execution granted pending outcome of Court of Appeal Appeal No. J-01(NCVC)(W)-282-06/2020 on condition that RM100,000 be deposited with the Plaintiff's solicitors' client account as stakeholder
  • Enclosure 236: costs in the cause
