Decision |
The Lahore High Court dismissed the writ petition challenging the interim order dated 19.7.2006 passed under Section 7 of the Illegal Dispossession Act, 2005. The court held that the discretionary order issued by the lower courts could not be contested in its constitutional jurisdiction unless it was proven to be whimsical, fanciful, or arbitrary. The petitioner failed to demonstrate any illegality or infirmity in the orders of the learned Additional Sessions Judge. Thus, the court ruled that the impugned orders were valid and could only be challenged through an appeal against the final judgment. |
