Nematullah (in C.A.1109/2013) and 7 others vs Chairman Govt. Body

This matter concerns a request for an adjournment in a civil appeal pending before the Supreme Court of Pakistan. The respondent's counsel sought an adjournment due to a bereavement in his family, specifically the death of his aunt, necessitating his attendance at her funeral. The Court, considering the request, granted the adjournment. Consequently, the proceedings were stayed, and the matter was rescheduled for hearing after a period of two weeks. No substantive legal questions were addressed, nor were any legal principles laid down, as the order was purely procedural in nature, facilitating the temporary postponement of the case to accommodate the personal circumstances of the legal representative involved.
