ASLAM RIAZ HUSSAIN, J
.‑‑ This order will dispose of two petitions namely (i) C.P.S.L.A. No.225/80 filed by Niaz Ali and another, (ii) C.P.S.L.A. No.412/80 filed by Riaz Ali and another, against the dismissal by the High Court, of their I.C.As. (No.161/79 and 160/79) respectively, the main judgment having been recorded in I. C. A . r4o.160/79 on 6‑11 1979
2. The fact giving rise to these petitions are, briefly, that they filed mukhbari applications against Sultan Ali respondent No.l (in C.P. No.225/80) and Sardar respondent No.l (in C.P. No.412/80) in Village Zafarwal against their claims. The said mukhbari applications were, however, dismissed. Feeling aggrieved the petitioners challenged the orders of dismissal through writ petitions in the High Court but these were also dismissed by a learned Single Judge of the said Court by the same order, dated 24‑4‑1979. They then filed two separate I.C.As which too, were dismissed by a Division Bench of the said High Court vide the impugned judgment.
Hence the present petitions.
3. We have heard the petitioners' counsel at some length. We notice that petitioner's mukhbari applications in these cases were not only rejected by the Settlement authorities but they did not succeed before the High Court before us the learned counsel has not been able to make good ground for interference with the impugned judgment. Leave is. therefore, refused in both the petitions.
S.Q. Leave refused.
