On appeal from the judgment of Justice Edward Belobaba of The Superior Court of Justice dated June 29, 2006.
A P P E A L B O O K E N D O R S E M E N T
1We are not persuaded that the motion judge erred in refusing to grant a longer adjournment than he did. On the evidence before him, we are satisfied that he was correct in holding that there was no genuine issue for trial either in fact or law, and no basis on which to grant a stay. As for the stay, the counterclaim was not sufficiently related to the claim to enforce the promissory note to warrant a stay. The record before us has not been augmented.
2Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed. Costs to the respondent fixed at $5,059.20 inclusive of G.S.T. and disbursements.```
