NMA 626-2015 P.C.:

We have gone through the notices of motion. According to us, one of the notices of motion is for stay of the execution proceedings and the question of condoning the delay in filing the notice of motion is not a procedure contemplated to the best of our knowledge. However, it could be a method to stall the execution proceedings before the lower Court. If the appellant's contention that he is a trustee to recover the money from the defendant who was declared bankrupt on account of insolvency proceedings in Honk Kong, we fail to understand why the appellant wants the stay of the execution proceedings. If by virtue of any order which is binding on both the parties, i.e. plaintiff and defendant, who are now decree holder and judgment debtor, the appellant is at liberty to approach the executing Court as an objector and seek relief as an independent party if he is entitled to any relief. Therefore, the notices of motion are dismissed.
