Can the employee cancel the visa while waiting a labor judgment of the supreme court?

I filed a case against my employer in Apr-21 against arbitrary dismissal by them. I won the case in First Court and Second Court. Even the report from an expert appointed by the court was in my favor.

I filed for execution which was appealed by my employer, but they lost the appeal as well. In Jul-21, I obtained NOC from the court to work elsewhere (my wife’s company) and got 1-year Temporary Work Permit to work during this time.

The employer has further appealed to the Supreme Court in Apr-22. My questions are:

1. My visa is expiring in Jun-22 and I want to travel in Jul-22. I'm afraid the judgment may not come until then. I want to cancel my current visa and obtain another visa (under my wife's sponsorship as she holds the golden visa).

What is the procedure for cancellation, and will it have any adverse impact on my case or new visa application?

2. Will the employer be liable to pay the Execution Order amount as they have lost the appeal.

Thank you, Sir.

You can cancel your current visa as the Supreme court judgment does not impact or stop the execution process.
