MUHAMMAD BOOTA vs DAULAT ALI

This matter concerns a dispute over house property located in Boreywalla Town, District Vehari. The petitioners asserted ownership based on a Permanent Transfer Order, while the respondent filed a suit for specific performance of a contract of sale allegedly executed by the petitioners on 6 October 1969. Following a contested trial, the trial court decreed the suit in favour of the respondent. The petitioners' subsequent appeal was dismissed by the Additional District Judge, Multan. The petitioners then filed a Second Appeal in the High Court, which was also dismissed. Upon review, the Supreme Court found that the High Court was justified in dismissing the Second Appeal because the matter was already concluded by concurrent findings of fact by the lower courts. The Supreme Court held that no question of law arose in the case to warrant interference. Consequently, the petition was dismissed. The key principle affirmed is that the Supreme Court will not interfere in a Second Appeal where the lower courts have reached concurrent findings of fact and no substantial question of law is presented for adjudication.
