1. SHAFIUR RAHMAN, J.-The petitioners who are brothers inter se, seek leave to appeal against an order of the Lahore High Court, dated 25-3-79 whereby their application ostensibly seeking clarification but in reality seeking avoidance of compromise given effect to by the Court was dismissed.
2. The two petitioners alongwith their third brother Habib Ahmed had protracted litigation with respondent No. 1 (Mst. Hanifan Bibi). It appears that a compromise was arrived at in the presence of the counsel parties and among others, of Habib Ahmed. In terms thereof order was passed by the Court disposing of the constitutional petition pending in the High Court. The petitioners wanted to avoid the compromise order on the ground that they were not present, that they had not given instructions nor consented to such a compromise and their counsel who approved it was not authorized by them to do so. The learned Judge in the High Court held that the compromise was arrived at by the applicants' brother and their counsel and the same was dictated in their presence in open Court which they accepted. There was no ambiguity or doubt which may require clarification and the application was dismissed.
3. The petitioners want to avoid the compromise. We do not find on the facts contained in the various decisions concerning the dispute between the parties any scope whereby the petitioners may avoid the compromise. Their counsel had approved of it. He has not challenged it. There is otherwise also no ground appearing which may justify interference with it. There is no merit in the petition and the leave to appeal is refused.
