The ground of the present appeal is that, when a judgment is pronounced by this Court, it is the duty of the Supreme Court to obey, and not to make an order inconsistent with obedience. Sec. 37 of the Judiciary Act 1903 provides that: - "The High Court in the exercise of its appellate jurisdiction may affirm reverse or modify the judgment appealed from, and may give such judgment as ought to have been given in the first instance, and if the cause is not pending in the High Court may in its discretion award execution from the High Court or remit the cause to the Court from which the appeal was brought for the execution of the judgment of the High Court; and in the latter case it shall be the duty of that Court to execute the judgment of the High Court in the same manner as if it were its own judgment." Now, there is no doubt that the Supreme Court has jurisdiction to make any order consequent on an order of this Court for the purpose of executing the latter order, but the Supreme Court has no power to make any order for the purpose of preventing its execution. When I say "power," I do not mean that in one sense the Supreme Court has no power to make an order, but, although technically the Supreme Court has power to make such an order, it is an order that ought not to be made. Just as an order made without hearing both parties is an order that ought not to be made, although it may be a just order. Quicunque aliquid statuerit, parte inauditâ alterâ, æquum licet statuerit, haud æquus fuerit. An order staying proceedings until further order is not an order in execution of a judgment of this Court, but is an order thwarting or obstructing the execution of that judgment. Therefore, whatever the merits may be, it is an order that ought not to be made, and must be set aside on appeal. To put it shortly, the judgment of this Court, when the case was remitted to the Supreme Court, is to be regarded on the same footing as a judgment of the Supreme Court from which no appeal has been or can be brought. Matters subsequent to the case being remitted are within the ordinary jurisdiction of the Supreme Court. But that Court has no authority, though it may have formal power, to make any order inconsistent with the order of this Court. The appeal, therefore, must be allowed.
