Muhammad Muneeb Arshad through Special Attorney — Petitioner Versus Mst. Ammara Mahroof and 2 others — Respondents
Decided Date: 5. Learned counsel for the Petitioner/Defendant has contended that the Impugned Order dated 10.12.2025 is contrary to law and facts, based on surmises and conjectures, and passed without proper application of judicial mind. Alongside the proceedings pending before the learned Trial Court in Pakistan, the Petitioner/Defendant has placed on record orders passed by the learned District Court, Ballinasloe, Ireland, relating to maintenance for the minor, whereby the Petitioner/Defendant's weekly liability towards the minor was fixed at different stages, which ultimately is reflected as 125 per week vide Order dated 12.09.2024. The Petitioner/ Defendant also relies upon payment proofs/bank remittances to show regular payments to the Respondent No. 1/Plaintiff in terms of the arrangement settled by the District Court, Ballinasloe, Ireland. It has been argued that the learned Trial Court acted in haste, ignored the settled law laid down by the Superior Courts requiring matters to be decided on merits rather than technicalities, and failed to consider the available record. It was further submitted that the Respondent No. 1/Plaintiff No. 1 has never denied receipt of the said maintenance, yet the learned Trial Court failed to consider this material fact while passing the Impugned Order. Learned counsel for the Petitioner/Defendant lastly contends that the Impugned Order dated 10.12.2025 is contrary to law and the record, suffers from non-application of mind, and has been passed in a mechanical manner, resulting in grave prejudice by depriving the Petitioner/Defendant of his substantive right to defend.
Summary: ARGUMENTS ON BEHALF OF THE RESPONDENT NO. 1: 7. I have heard the learned counsel for the parties at considerable length and perused the record. 8. Examination of the record shows that there remains an undisputed cross-border litigation inter se the p...
