NOMA & NOMA

The applicant, Noma, sought a stay of proceedings in a matter before Foster J of the Supreme Court of New South Wales. The specific nature of the underlying dispute between Noma and the respondent, also named Noma, is not detailed in the provided text.

The central legal issue before the Court was whether to grant the applicant's request for a stay of proceedings. This required the Court to consider the grounds upon which a stay might be granted and to assess whether those grounds were met in this instance.

Foster J dismissed the application for a stay. While the reasons for this dismissal are not elaborated upon in the provided text, the decision indicates that the applicant failed to satisfy the Court that a stay was warranted. The Court made no orders regarding costs at this stage, allowing for applications to be made within 28 days.
