Headnotes / Summary

(On appeal from the judgment and order of the High Court, Lahore, dated the 10th May 1971, in L. P. A. No. 395 of 1969). Constitution of Pakistan (1962), Art. 58‑Interim order to furnish security for mesne profitsSuch orders not intended to be interfered with by Supreme Court in exercise of its extraordinary jurisdiction under Art. 58.

Judgment & Decree

MUHAMMAD YAQUB ALI, J.‑The petitioners undertook to furnish security for mesne profits during the pendency of the suit as a condition for setting aside the appointment of a Receiver by a learned Single Judge of the High Court. The Letters Patent Bench accepted the prayer and allowed the appeal and directed the petitioners to furnish security for mesne profits in the sum of Rs. 5,000 per annum, from the date of the institution of the, suit. It is against this order that the petitioners seek leave to appeal. The petition is wholly misconceived as it is not the intention of the framer of the Constitution that interim orders of the nature indicated above, should be interfered with by this Court in the exercise of its extraordinary jurisdiction under Article

58. On merits too we see no reason to differ with the estimation of mesne profits by the High Court. The petition is dismissed. Petition dismissed
