  • ---Art.l85 (3)--Arbitration Act (X of 1940), S.14--Remand order by High Court--Order of High Court impugned in petition for leave to appeal only a remand order which appeared to be a fair order hardly requiring any interference--No interim order granted by Supreme Court to stay operation of such remand order and Advocate-on-Record of petitioner not aware as to what was outcome of remand order of High Court--Petitioner having not contacted Advocate-on-Record for last several years and not given any instructions in that behalf--Petition appearing only to be of academic interest thus dismissed.
  • The order of the High Court impugned by this petition is only an order of remand, which appears to be a fair order, and hardly requires any interference. Moreover, it is to be observed that no interim order was granted by this Court to stay the operation of the above order of remand and the learned Advocate-on-Record is not aware as to what the outcome of the order of the High Court has been because the petitioner has not contacted him during the last several years and not given any instructions to him, in this behalf. This petition now, therefore, appears only to be of academic interest.

A. Karim, Advocate-on-Record for Petitioner. Nemo for Respondent. Date of hearing: 5th June, 1984. NASIM HASAN SHAH, J.-- This petition is directed against the judgment dated 12-11-1976 passed- by a learned Single Judge of the Lahore High Court whereby he accepted the appeal of the respondent herein and remanded the case to the Court below to decide the application submitted before it under section 14 of the Arbitration Act after giving the said respondent (who was the appellant before him) an opportunity to produce evidence, if any, in support of its objections and also a similar opportunity o: rebuttal to the petitioner herein (who was the respondent before him).
