</div>&nbsp;Mr.
Jedidiah Williams moves his application for Stay of Execution in terms of the
motion paper and supporting affidavit together with its annexures.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;Mr.
Yarney also opposes the application and denies having taken steps in execution
of the Judgment/Ruling of this court.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;RULING<o:p></o:p>In
my considered opinion, the matters being raised in the notice of Appeal which
founds the entire application are not new.&nbsp;
They were raised before the Arbitration and were not pursued.&nbsp; This court will not encourage profiting from
one’s own indolence.&nbsp; I do not think the
application is being brought bona fides.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;The
application is accordingly dismissed.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;Please see;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Nana Kwasi Agyeman VIII vrs. Nana Herman Denkyi XIII
