Subject: MJ authority

Dwight,
Question:  Does a stay mean that the MJ is without authority to advance the case at all?  Put another way, does it in fact mean he without any authority until the stay is lifted, or can he schedule Art 39(a) sessions and require attendance in the meantime?
Any of you smart appellate lawyers can answer in lieu of His Holiness, if you know the answer (and perhaps know of some authority for it).
Thanks!
Neal
