    Court
    High Court

    The stay was declined because the appeal would not be rendered nugatory absent a stay (damages would be an adequate remedy for a commercial lease and respondent undertook to allow re-entry if appeal succeeds), the applicant's delay and conduct weighed against relief, and the overall balance of convenience favored allowing the judgment for possession to be enforced pending appeal.
