Judgment ORDER MUHAMMAD AFZAL ZULLAH, J.--Leave to appeal has been sought from judgment of Punjab Service Tribunal dated 12-9-1983; whereby petitioner's appeal from the order of his dismissal, was held as the---barred and dismissed accordingly. Learned counsel has contended that the the consumed in pursuing a review application (which further review admittedly was not competent) should have been condoned under section 5 of the Limitation Act. The Tribunal considered the application under section 5 of the Limitation Act and dismissed it on merits on the finding that there was no justification for filing the incompetent review application. That being so the delay was not condoned. It is a simple case of exercise of jurisdiction one way or the other on proper consideration of the merits. No point of law of general importance is involved. Leave to appeal is refused .
