Holding

The court dismisses the application with costs, finding that the appeal is not arguable and that granting a stay would not render the appeal nugatory.

Facts

The applicants were served with an order purportedly made pursuant to a ruling in a previous case, and they sought a stay of execution of that order pending the hearing of their appeal.

Issues

  1. Whether the applicants' appeal is arguable
  2. Whether granting a stay of execution would render the appeal nugatory
  3. Whether the applicants are entitled to a stay of proceedings

Reasoning
