Petitioner: HUSSAIN KARIM VS Respondent: MESSRS CRESCENT PAK INDUSTRIES LTD. AND ANOTHER
Court Name: Supreme Court of Pakistan Judge(s): Salahuddin Ahmad, Hamoodur Rahman, Muhammad Yaqub Ali Khan Title: HUSSAIN KARIM vs MESSRS CRESCENT PAK INDUSTRIES LTD. AND ANOTHER Case No.:Constitution Petition No. 861 of 1974 Civil Petition for Special Leave to
Appeal No. K-82 of 1974 Date of Judgment:1975-10-23 Reported As: 1976 SCMR 74 Result: Petition dismissed Judgment ORDER MUHAMMAD YAQUB ALI, J.-On hearing the learned counsel for the ,petitioner, we find no proper ground to grant leave to appeal. The petitioner admittedly did not give notice to the employer before invoking the jurisdiction of the Labour Court. This was in contravention of the provisions of Standing Order No. 18. The High Court has relied on Saleemsons Ltd. v. 2nd Sind Labour Court (PLD 1973 Kar. 1) and dismissed the writ petition with the observation that "the order passed by the Labour Court in the present case is covered by law and authority." It is not shown that the vie taken by the Labour Court is not covered by law and authority. In the circumstances, the writ petition filed by the petitioner to challenge the order of the Court as without lawful authority was rightly dismissed. Leave to appeal is refused and the petition dismissed.
