JUDGMENT

JUDGMENT ' MUNIR A. SHEIKH, J.---This petition is directed against the judgment/order dated 28-1-2000 of the Lahore High Court through which civil miscellaneous application filed by the petitioner seeking restoration of the revision for non-prosecution, has been dismissed. 2. The revision petition was fixed for hearing on 11-6-1999 on which date neither the petitioner nor his learned counsel appeared and the same was dismissed for non-prosecution. Application filed by the petitioner seeking restoration of the revision petition has been dismissed through the impugned judgment dated 28-1-2000, against which leave to appeal has been sought. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner when questioned admitted that there was nothing in the application as to why the petitioner did not inquire about the fate of the case from his learned counsel for about six months after the last date of hearing from which negligence on the part of the petitioner was fully established. 4. The judgment/order impugned in this petition does not suffer from any illegality, therefore, this petition has no merits which is accordingly dismissed and leave to appeal refused.
