the stay order means that the divorce proceedings at hyd court will not go on till the pendency of the petition in high court. you do not have to appear in hyd court and the matter will be decided by the high court. however, seek the copy of stay order and reproduce the same here so that the opinion given above is substantiated.

it is a normal procedure. During pendency of transfer petition the high court stays the petition filed in trial / lower court.

You are mixing up two things - divorce proceedings before trial court; and the transfer proceedings before High Court. If you have already appeared before trial court and made a statement refusing your consent for divorce, the proceedings were to continue on the petition filed by your husband; which proceedings have now been stayed by the High Court on your transfer petition. Now you should wait for final decision of the high court and need not to appear before trial court.
