Holding

Facts

The Decree Holder (Farnades) filed a suit against the Judgment Debtor (Comoco Savings and Credit Cooperative Society Limited) after the Judgment Debtor began facing financial challenges.

  2. Whether the Judgment Debtor will suffer substantial loss if the stay is not granted.

Reasoning

The court found that the application was not delayed, and the judgment debtor did not suffer substantial loss. The court could not grant a stay pending uncertain events.

Outcome

The application is dismissed.
