JUDGMENT Against Ext. P1 assessment order, the petitioner has filed Ext. P2 appeal along with Ext. P3 stay petition. The petitioner's grievance in this writ petition is that before the Appellate Authority could consider and pass orders on Ext. P3 stay petition, coercive recovery proceedings have been initiated by the first respondent, which, according to the petitioner is unfair. Having heard the learned Government Pleader also, I dispose of this writ petition with the following directions : The second respondent Appellate Authority shall consider and pass orders on Ext. P3 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgement. Till orders are passed on Ext. P3, further coercive recovery proceedings in Ext. P2 appeal, shall be kept in abeyance.
