Is there any case law supporting the argument of efficiency in the context of a motion to stay the application?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Thomson v. Bryce, 2016 BCSC 687 (CanLII):
While this argument has some initial attraction, it is apparent the defendants’ argument of efficiency relies on a conclusion that a stay is compelling and will be successful. This is somewhat circular reasoning, as it in essence requires, at a minimum, a prima facie assessment of the application which is not properly the subject of a sequencing application (see Douez v. Facebook, Inc., 2012 BCSC 2097 at para. 22).
