Court Name: Supreme Court of Pakistan Judge(s): Muhammad Afzal Zullah, Saad Saood Jan Title: ABDUS SATTAR and others vs NAWAB DIN and others Case No.: Civil Petitions Nos.1140 of 1984 and Criminal Original 10 of 1986 Date of Judgment:1988-06-06 Reported As: 1989 SCMR 1204 Result: Petitions dismissed
Judgment ORDER ' MUHAMMAD AFZAL ZULLAH, J.--These two matters arise out of the same case. ' In C.P. 1140 of 1984 the vendees' side in a pre-emption matter have called in question the dismissal of their Civil Revision by the High Court. The only point now left for examination, according to the learned counsel is of limitation. It was observed in the impugned judgment that taking into consideration the fact that the suit could not have been instituted prior to 31-8-1975 when the trial Court was closed, the respondents' suit filed on 1-9-1975 could not be dismissed as time-barred. After some discussion learned counsel had nothing to say against this obvious position. Leave to appeal accordingly is refused. ' In so far as the contempt application (Criminal Original No,10 of 1986) is concerned, we do not consider it proper to deal with it on merits at this stage. Therefore, this petition is also dismissed.
