What is the test for a stay of execution of an application for a motion to stay of a motion for a separation?

Alberta, Canada


The following excerpt is from Thember v King, 2019 ABCA 405 (CanLII):

The test for a stay in these circumstances is a modified tripartite test, most recently described in KNW v. CEJB, 2019 ABCA 363 at para 10 as requiring consideration of whether there is a serious question to be tried, whether the applicant would suffer irreparable harm if the stay were refused and whether the balance of convenience favours the stay. The test is modified by the overarching concern about what is in the best interest of the children.
