Bringing an appeal does not automatically suspend the enforcement of the original order.  This means that you must obey the original order pending the outcome of your appeal. A Justice of the BC Supreme Court has the power to order an interim stay of proceedings, either in whole or in part, pending an application for leave to appeal. This power is discretionary, not automatic. A stay of the original order will only be granted if the stay is necessary to either (a) preserve the subject matter of the litigation pending final determination, (b) to prevent irremediable damage, or (c) where there are other special circumstances.
