1. In determining whether to grant a stay of execution, the parties are not in dispute that, in applying the principles set down in Star Play Development Ltd v Bess Fashion Management Company Ltd [2007] 5 HKC 84, the starting point is that a successful party is not to be deprived of the fruits of his success, and that a defendant must justify a stay of execution by showing that good reasons exist for a stay. An appeal itself does not operate as a stay.
