Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant sued Wedzera Petroleum (principal debtor) and the respondent (guarantor) for $847,847.65 arising from petroleum products sold in 2010. After obtaining default judgment against the principal debtor and final judgment against the respondent on 15 April 2016, the respondent appealed. The applicant then sought leave to execute pending appeal, arguing the appeal was merely to delay payment.
