CR No.4071 of 2010 (O&M) -2- Respondent No.3 filed an appeal against the aforesaid order before the Additional District Judge, Jalandhar, who vide impugned order dated 15.6.2010 had stayed the operation of the order passed by the trial Court while issuing notice in the appeal and the stay application. Challenging the aforesaid order, learned counsel for the petitioner has vehemently argued that the impugned order is illegal and without jurisdiction against the law and has been passed without hearing the petitioner. However, on the other hand, counsel for the respondents has supported the impugned order. Indisputably, the appeal is pending for 4.8.2010 for arguments. After hearing learned counsel for the parties, this revision petition is disposed of with a direction to the Lower Appellate Court to decide the appeal of the petitioner on the date fixed.
