The Applicant desired that the leave operates as stay. So far its only Applicant who has stated its case on the issue of stay. The Respondent is asking for more time to file a Replying Affidavit. This being a matter that I take to be of public interest I would wish to do a comprehensive Ruling after getting the input of both counsels. Order 53 Rule 1(4) of the Civil Procedure Rules gives room for the issue of stay to be heard separately within 7 days. I therefore grant leave for the Respondents to file a Replying Affidavit with
