HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No. 14280 of 2011 ORDER: Heard Sri M. Sudheer Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Social Welfare and at their request, the writ petition is disposed of at the stage of admission. The action of the respondents in not considering the stay application filed along with the appeal dated 21.4.2011 under Section 7(2) of the Andhra Pradesh Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Backward Classes) Regulation of Issue of Community Certificates Act, 1993 is under challenge in this writ petition. A consequential direction is sought to suspend the proceedings of the 2nd respondent dated 28.2.2011 pending disposal of the appeal by the 1st respondent. Since the petitioner has preferred an appeal along with the stay application on 21.4.2011, I consider it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition directing the 1st respondent to decide the stay application in accordance with law and pass orders thereupon within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The writ petition stands disposed of accordingly. However, in the circumstances, without costs. ____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN,J Date:18.5.2011 Note: Furnish c.c. in three days.
