Judgment & Decree

NASIM HASAN SHAH, J.‑‑The learned Judge in the High Court has reversed, in second appeal, the concurrent finding of fact recorded by the two Courts below that the alleged donee was not able to establish that possession had been delivered to him in pursuance of the alleged gift in his favour and, therefore, the making of the gift was not proved. After hearing Ch. Muhammad Ashraf Wahla, we consider that his contention that the learned Judge in the High Court could not have reversed such a finding of fact while hearing a second appeal and that he exceeded the powers conferred on him under section 100, C.P.C. has considerable force. Leave is, accordingly, granted. Security in the sum of Rs.1,

000. M.I. Leave granted.
