ORDER

MUHAMMAD AFZAL ZULLAH, J. ‑‑Leave to appeal has been sought in these two petitions from Judgment dated 12‑10‑1980 of the Lahore High Court; whereby two Intra‑Court Appeals arising out of pre‑emption matters filed by the petitioners‑side, were dismissed.

2. The petitioners are vendees. The respondents/ pre‑emptors‑side have succeeded. The dispute that now remains, has arisen out of consolidation proceedings; as a result of which, the identity of the suit land was changed. In an earlier round, the High Court determined the manner in which the pre‑emption decree was to be satisfied. After the needful had been done in pursuance of the direction of the High Court, the petitioners‑side again came before the High Court in its writ jurisdiction claiming that some errors had been committed in observing the directions of the High Court. A learned Single Judge dismissed the Writ Petitions on the ground that no error of law was involved and that it was not a fit case for exercise of discretionary writ jurisdiction. This order having been affirmed on an Intra‑Court Appeal, the petitioners have now sought leave to appeal.

3. We have heard the learned counsel. He has not been able to establish any error on account of which interference by the High Court in its writ jurisdiction, would have been justified. For the same reasons, we do not find any justification for interference. Leave to appeal is, accordingly, refused in both these petitions.

M.I. /G‑90/S Petitions dismissed.
