Decision |
The Lahore High Court dismissed the revision petition filed by the petitioners, JALAL and another, against the judgment dated 24-9-1999. The court found that the petitioners failed to provide a plausible explanation for the delay in filing the revision. Furthermore, it was established that the property in dispute was Shamlat Deh, owned by the village's owners, and that the petitioners had no valid claim to the land as they had previously sold land beyond their due share. The court upheld the decisions of the lower courts, confirming there was no illegality or material irregularity warranting interference under revisional jurisdiction. |
Summary |
In the case of Civil Revision No.750 of 2003 decided on 6th February 2006, the Lahore High Court addressed a dispute over land ownership and procedural delays in filing a revision petition. The petitioners, JALAL and another, contended that they were co-sharers of land classified as Shamlat Deh. However, the court found that they had sold portions of their land, which undermined their claim. The decision emphasized the importance of timely legal action and provided insight into the interpretation of land ownership laws in Pakistan. The ruling highlighted the necessity for petitioners to offer credible explanations for delays in legal processes, reinforcing the principle of adhering to procedural timelines. This case serves as a significant reference in civil procedure and land law, particularly regarding the rights of village landowners and the implications of delays in legal filings. |
