Ch. Muhammad Aslam Sandhu, Advocate Supreme Court and Syed Abu‑ul‑Asim Jafri Advocate‑on‑Record (absent) for Petitioners. Nemo for respondents. Date of hearing: 19th August, 1989. MUHAMMAD AFZAL ZULLAH, J.‑‑‑The legal heirs of a deceased party having been impleaded by the High Court in a pending second appeal, the petitioners have challenged the interim order passed by that Court in this behalf. The approach of the High Court was that the concerned party was one of the pro forma defendants. On. his "demise his daughter Aisha was impleaded and now she herself has passed away. Her legal representatives be brought on the record but it shall be subject to the objection .............................................................. ...........................................With this reservation, the C.M. is allowed." Obviously the order was subject to objection and further if ultimately the Regular Second Appeal is decided against the petitioners they would be able to assail the said interim order if they choose to seek remedy before the Supreme Court. With this observation we find no justification for grant of leave to appeal which is accordingly refused. H.B.T./Z‑76/S Leave refused.
