Holding

The court denied the application for stay of execution.

Facts

The plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal against a judgment directing the County Land Registrar to cancel the defendant's title in respect of LR. No MOIBEN/MOIBEN BLOCK 4 (TUGEN) 115. The defendant argued that the application for stay was not filed in a timely manner and that the appeal may render the stay order nugatory.

  2. Whether the applicant has established substantial loss that would result from a refusal to grant the stay
