A special Appeal has been preferred to the High Court against a judgement. Appeal has been admitted and application for staying the order passed by learned single judge has been dismissed. For non compliance of the judgement passed by learned single judge a contempt petition has been filed prior the filing of special appeal. Special Appeal has been pending for long time. Now the contempt proceeding has been deferred till the dicision of the special appeal. whether this order is valid in law now what I should do? Special Appeal is pending for last 9 years.

Though generally contempt petition is decided along-with main appeal, however, you may prefer an application for early hearing.

Yes generally Contempt petition is decided along with the main appeal. Yes this order is very much valid in law.
If you want an early disposal then you may file an application for early hearing.
