‑This is a petition for leave to appeal from the judgment of a learned Judge of Lahore High Court, Bahawalpur Bench, dismissing a Constitutional petition filed by petitioners. By that petition, petitioners sought to challenge the order of the District Judge, Bahawalpur dated 8‑2‑1983 allowing revision application filed by respondent No.1 herein and in result granted his request for filing a fresh written statement. The learned Judge in the High Court refused to exercise constitutional jurisdiction on the ground that on the facts disclosed learned District Judge had ample jurisdiction to permit the submission of fresh written statement.
We have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner in the light of the record before us. We find that the learned Judge in the High Court has very rightly refused to exercise the constitutional jurisdiction of the High Court on the facts of the case. There is therefore no merit in this petition and it is dismissed.
M . Y. H. Petition dismissed.
