In Trop v. Trop (Ont CA, 2024) the Ontario Court of Appeal notes that the stay of a court order is an equitable remedy:
[12] For these reasons, I dismiss Mr. Trop’s motion for a stay. Mr. Trop should have complied with the production order by October 7, 2024. He did not instigate this stay motion until October 31, 2024. His failure to comply with a court order is further reason to refuse the equitable remedy of a stay: Dickie v. Dickie, 2007 SCC 8, [2007] 1 S.C.R. 346, at paras. 4, 6.
