| Decision |
The Supreme Court of Pakistan refused leave to appeal in the petitions filed by the plaintiffs/pre-emptors in various pre-emption suits. The court noted that no pre-emption decree had been passed in favor of any petitioner before any authority, as the relevant law ceased to be effective on July 31, 1986. Thus, no fresh decree could be issued in these cases, leading to the dismissal of all petitions. |
| Summary |
This case addresses critical issues regarding the Land Reforms Regulation, 1972, particularly focusing on pre-emption rights of tenants. The Supreme Court of Pakistan ruled on petitions concerning pre-emption suits where the petitioners failed to obtain necessary decrees by the stipulated deadline. The decision underscored the importance of adhering to legal timelines and the implications of the law's cessation. The ruling is significant for tenants and landlords, impacting future pre-emption claims. Key terms include 'pre-emption', 'Land Reforms', 'Supreme Court', and 'legal rights', which are crucial for understanding tenant rights under Pakistani law. The case serves as a precedent for similar disputes. |
