The Court stayed the trial court proceeding and imposed a cost of &#8377;1,000\/- to be deposited into the account of the President and Secretary of the High Court Employees Union due to lack of proper authorization by the respondent&#8217;s counsel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold;
