Justice T.Meena Kumari) This writ appeal is filed against the order, dated 4.6.2007 passed by the learned single Judge in WPMP No.12402 of 2007 in WP No.9779 of 2007. The appellants herein are the writ petitioners. They filed the above writ petition challenging the order, dated 23.1.2006 passed by the Labour Court III, Hyderabad in I.D.No.95 of 2004. Along with the writ petition, the appellant-petitioners also filed WPMP No.12402 of 2007 seeking stay of operation of the award passed by the Labour Court in I.D.No.95 of 2004. While admitting the writ petition, the learned single Judge dismissed the WPMP and directed the appellants-writ petitioners to reinstate the 1st respondent into service forthwith. Having aggrieved by the same, the present writ appeal has been filed. Heard the learned Counsel and perused the material available on record. The present appeal is filed against the interlocutory order, whereby the learned Single Judge refused to grant interim stay of the order of the Labour Court. The main writ petition is pending. At this juncture, the opinion expressed, if any, at this stage of the proceedings, may touch the very merits of the main writ petition. Apart from that, it is the discretion exercised by the Court while entertaining the interlocutory applications, on considering the circumstances of the case. In this view of the matter and in view of the fact that the main writ petition is pending and the present appeal is preferred against the interlocutory orders, we are not inclined to admit the writ appeal. However, the Registry is directed to post the W.P. for final hearing on 13th July, 2009 at the top of the list, after obtaining necessary orders from the Hon’ble the Chief Justice. Accordingly, the writ appeal is disposed of. No order as to costs. _______________________ Justice T.Meena Kumari _______________________ Justice Sanjay Kumar Dated: 3rd June, 2009 Gurc/nn.
