Holding

The Application is dismissed with costs.

Facts

The 1st Defendant/Applicant sought to stay execution of warrants of attachment dated 29/1/2024, pending the hearing and determination of a Reference challenging the Taxing Master's decision on taxed costs.

Issues

  1. Whether the Court should grant a stay of execution of the warrants dated 29/1/2024
  2. Whether the Court should strike out the application with costs

Reasoning

The Applicants failed to file a Reference within the prescribed timelines, and the Application is therefore deemed untenable. The Court also found that the Application does not establish substantial loss.

Outcome

Application dismissed with costs
