Petitioner: Syed AFZAL HUSSAIN SHAH VS Respondent: QANITA KHATOON
Court Name: Supreme Court of Pakistan Judge(s): Muhammad Afzal Zullah, Syed Usman Ali Shah Title: Syed AFZAL HUSSAIN SHAH vs QANITA KHATOON Case No.:Civil Petition for Leave to Appeal No. 884 of 1985 Civil Revision No. 696 of
1985 Date of Judgment:1989-06-14 Reported As: 1991 SCMR 351 Result: Leave refused Judgment ORDER MUHAMMAD AFZAL ZULLAH, J.---Leave to appeal has been sought by the defendant in a money suit; against the dismissal by the High Court of his Civil Revision on the finding that there being no misreading or non-reading of evidence no justification was made out for exercise of revisional jurisdiction. The petitioner has lost throughout and now the decree for recovery of Rs.7,262.79 stands affirmed also by the High Court. The only argument after the rejection of the petitioner's pleas on merits pressed by his learned counsel before us relates to the plea of limitation. The liability to pay the amount has been established against the petitioner. After hearing the learned counsel on the point of limitation we do not consider it a fit case for exercise of the discretionary jurisdiction of the Supreme Court in granting leave to appeal in his favour. The same, accordingly, is refused.
