Bulleen and Bulleen (No 4)

In the matter of *Bulleen and Bulleen (No 4)*, Cronin J considered an application by the husband for a stay of certain orders made on 28 September 2010, pending the determination of his Notice of Appeal. The dispute concerned the disposition of artwork.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether to grant a stay of specific paragraphs of previous orders. This required the court to assess the balance of convenience and the merits of the husband's proposed appeal.

Cronin J granted the stay of paragraphs 1-5 of the 28 September 2010 orders, subject to conditions. These conditions included a restraint on the husband disposing of any artwork in his possession or control and an obligation to maintain insurance for the artwork until the appeal was determined. The husband's application for costs was refused, and the remaining applications were dismissed.
