Judgment ORDER ' MUHAMMAD AFZAL ZULLAH, J.--Leave to appeal has been sought by vendees' side in a pre-emption matter against a consent decree, and dismissal of the petitioner's writ petition by the High Court, mainly on this ground. ' Learned counsel contended that there was no power available with the counsel appearing for the petitioners to enter into an agreement with the opposite side. Although it is a question of fact; still assuming for the sake of arguments that the counsel had no such power, it is not a case where two Advocates/counsel of the respective parties, have entered into a compromise. On the other hand the record shows that the compromise was between the parties. Learned counsel for the petitioners had only made a statement in proof of that agreement; stating that the parties had agreed. That being so, no justification has been made out for grant of leave to appeal. This petition accordingly is dismissed.
