2. According to the learned counsel, the respondent, who is the wife of the petitioner is not residing along with the petitioner and that her attempt is to occupy the building in the name of the petitioner and one of his sons. After filing the criminal appeal he moved a stay petition and his grievance is that the learned Sessions Judge has not passed any orders in the stay petition.

3. Considering the nature of the relief claimed in this OP, I don’t feel it is necessary to issue notice to the respondent. After hearing the learned Public Prosecutor as well as the learned counsel for the petitioner, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this O.P. as follows:-

The learned Addl. Sessions Judge, Muvattupuzha is directed to dispose of Crl.M.App.No.351/2025 in Crl.A.N
