JUDGMENT Against Exts. P1 & P2 assessment orders, the petitioner has filed Exts. P3 & P4 appeals along with Exts. P5 & P6 stay petitions. The petitioner's grievance in this writ petition is that while the stay petitions are pending, revenue recovery proceedings have been initiated by the 3rd respondent to recover the tax disputed in the appeals. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. In the facts and circumstances of the case, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the 2nd respondent appellate authority to consider and pass orders on Exts. P5 & P6 stay petitions, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Till orders are passed on Exts. P5 & P6 stay petitions, coercive recovery of the tax disputed in Exts. P3 & P4 appeals shall be kept in abeyance.
