Petitioner: ABDUL HAMEED VS Respondent: CHIEF MINISTER. PUNJAB And 2 Other
Court Name: Supreme Court of Pakistan Judge(s): Muhammad Afzal Zullah, Syed Usman Ali Shah Title: ABDUL HAMEED vs CHIEF MINISTER. PUNJAB And 2 Other Case No.: Civil Petition for Leave to Appeal No. 914 of 1989 Petition No. 584/89 Date of Judgment:1991-10-31 Reported As: 1991 SCMR 1529 Result: Leave refused
Judgment ORDER MUHAMMAD AFZAL ZULLAH, J: --This petition for leave to appeal brings under challenge the refusal by the High Court to grant interim relief to the petitioner during the pendency of his writ petition. After hearing the petitioner, who has appeared in person, we do not consider it a fit case for grant of leave to appeal either on merits or on the ground that the Writ Petition having been admitted for regular hearing, the High Court was bound to grant him interim relief. There is no such command in law. The High Court was fully justified not to stifle the administrative machinery of the Government in service matter by issuing the claimed interim relief. Leave to appeal, therefore, is refused.
