The High Court's dismissal of the Judgment Creditor's application for a garnishee order absolute does not constitute an executable order or judgment under Order 45 of the Rules of Court 2012; consequently there is nothing capable of being stayed and the application for a stay (Enclosure 77) is dismissed.
