Tomlinson and Conlan (No. 2)

In the matter of *Tomlinson and Conlan (No. 2)*, Gill J of the Supreme Court of Victoria considered an application for a stay. The precise nature of the underlying dispute between the parties, Tomlinson and Conlan, is not detailed in the provided text, but the application before the court concerned a request for a stay of proceedings or orders.

The central legal issue before Gill J was whether the applicants had satisfied the criteria for the grant of a stay. This would typically involve demonstrating a strong likelihood of success on appeal or that the balance of convenience favoured granting the stay to prevent irreparable harm or injustice.

Gill J refused the application for a stay. While the specific reasons for this refusal are not elaborated upon in the provided text, the decision indicates that the applicants did not persuade the court that a stay was warranted. The court's decision was to deny the request for a stay.
