ORDER
JAVID IQBAL, J.--This petition is two years 3 months and 27 days barred by time so far as the original order passed by the Lahore High Court Lahore in RSA No.284 of 1965 is concerned. That order was passed on 1st June, 1985. The review against that order lay. The petitioner filed review petition against that order before that very learned Judge who had dismissed the RSA. The review petition was likewise dismissed on 27th October, 1987.
Learned counsel for the petitioner attempted to argue that his petition for leave to appeal was within time so far as the order of the High Court dated 27th October, 1987 dismissing his review petition was concerned. We pointed out to him that he in fact was challenging the earlier order of the High Court in R.S.A. dated 1st June, 1985 and as the period is to be counted from the date of that order, the petition is barred by time. He then sought the condonation of delay.
We have heard learned counsel for the petitioner at some length, but in our considered opinion no good ground has been advanced for the condonation of delay. In that view of the matter this petition dismissed as barred by time.
