| Decision |
The petition for special leave to appeal was dismissed as the contentions raised were related to questions of fact that had been conclusively determined by the lower courts. The Supreme Court found no violation of law that warranted examination, affirming the High Court's decision which stated that the findings of fact against the petitioners were not subject to interference under revision jurisdiction. |
| Summary |
In the case concerning Civil Petition for Leave to Appeal No. 225-R of 1987, the Supreme Court of Pakistan addressed the inheritance rights of the petitioners, who claimed to be collaterals of the deceased, Noor Muhammad. The petitioners' claims were dismissed by the trial court and upheld by the appellate court, leading to the petition for special leave to appeal. The Supreme Court concluded that the issues raised pertained to established facts, which had been consistently ruled upon by the lower courts, thereby reinforcing the principle of finality in judicial decisions. The ruling underscored the importance of adhering to concurrent factual findings unless there is a clear violation of legal standards, which was not evidenced in this case. This case serves as a critical reference for inheritance disputes and the legal thresholds for appealing factual determinations made by lower courts. |
