Judgment & Decree

MUHAMMAD AFZAL ZULLAH, J.‑‑Leave to appeal has en sought by a vendee in a pre‑emption matter against the judgment of the Lahore High Court dated 6‑6‑1984 whereby respondents' Regular Second Appeal was allowed and the decree passed in their favour by the trial Court, was restored. Learned counsel has pressed the point with regard to the bar of partial pre‑emption against the respondents. When told that the argument is based on mere technicality otherwise in so far as the facts and circumstances are concerned, there is no doubt that the suit of the respondent did not suffer from partial pre‑emption and further that this Court has dealt with the question of amendment of plaints in similar circumstances by giving a liberal interpretation of the relevant law. The learned counsel was not able to press the point any further. Two judgments of this Court in similar circumstances were also pointed out. They are Sharif v. Muhammad Amir (1985 S C M R 1214), Naeem‑ur‑Rehman v. Muhammad Anwar (1980 S C M R 1488). Two other judgments on question of amendment Mst. Ghulam Bibi v. Sarsa Khan (P L D 1985 S C 345), Muhammad Anwar v. Allah Bakhsh (1986 S C M R 1575) were also brought to our notice by R & R Officer. In the light of what has been stated above, this is not a fit case for the grant of leave to appeal. Accordingly, the same is refused. A.A.,/A‑382/S Leave to appeal refused.
