In a petition to the Shillong bench here, MPAs lawyer Vijay Hansarika sought the transfer of all the four cases to the apex court.
The bench headed by Ashok Potsangbam accepted the plea and deferred the hearing of the case till May 4.
Earlier, admitting a special leave petition by the four disqualified MLAs, the Gauhati High Court had on April 24 issued a notice to Speaker of Meghalaya Assembly B M Lanong asking him why his order disqualifying the four MLAs should not be stayed.
Lanong had on April 8 disqualified the MLAs--KHNAMs Paul Lyngdoh, NCPs Sanbor Shullai and Independents Limison Sangma and Ismail R Marak days after placing them under suspension for switching allegiance from NCP-led Meghalaya Progressive Alliance (MPA) to opposition Congress camp ahead of the controversial trust vote on March 17 last.
The Gauhati High Court had earlier stayed the interim suspension of the MLAs but the Supreme Court had given the Speaker free-hand to go ahead with the disqualification proceedings.
