Appeal to the Supreme Court

Section 10(1) of the Companies Ordinance, 1984 provided that it applied to a winding up order as well as any order or decision made in the winding up proceedings after a company had been ordered to be wound up

Resultantly, a winding up order as well as any order passed or decision made by the Company Judge after the winding up of a company should be appealable before the Supreme Court instead of the Division Bench of the High Court. [Ibrahim Shamsi v. Bashir Ahmed Memon (2005 SCMR 1450) held to be good law; Kamaluddin Qureshi v. Ali International Company (PLD 2009 SC 367) overturned].

Adjudication in appeal proceedings by the Supreme Court at the apex level was distinct and different from decision/findings of Domestic Tribunals, not because of hierarchy but because of the statutory powers available to an appellate court under S.67 of the Representation of the People Act, 1976

Adjudication of an issue, which was a continuous bone of contention between the parties could not be postponed even if there was a lapse of a period of 10 years ; and particularly when a candidate had to prove his/her credentials in terms of Arts. 62 & 63 of the Constitution to establish that no objection/attack was actionable against him or her, both before as well as after entering the Parliament or the Provincial Assembly

Court could intervene in the election of such candidates, who were found to be disqualified, even after having been elected as members of Parliament, and their election could subsequently be de-notified.
