ROSE & HODGES

In the matter of Rose & Hodges, the wife sought a stay of certain orders made on 23 June 2014, pending the determination of her appeal. The husband had applied for costs.

The primary legal issue before Cronin J was whether to grant the wife's application for a stay of paragraphs 11 to 16 of the earlier orders, and whether to stay the husband's application for costs.

Cronin J ordered that the earlier paragraphs 11 to 16 of the orders made on 23 June 2014 be stayed, conditional upon the wife paying $500,000 to the husband by 4.00pm on Friday 12 September 2014. The husband's application for costs was also stayed until the determination of the wife's appeal. The applicant's case filed on 6 August 2014 and the response thereto were otherwise dismissed.
