1. JAVID IQBAL, J.--The background in which this petition for leave to appeal is filed is this that a suit was brought by the predecessor-in-interest of the respondents namely Mst. Amir Fatima alleging that she was in possession as owner of a portion of the disputed property basing her title on a written gift deed, dated 16th May, 1966 Which the present petitioner had executed in her favour inter alia on her marrying his stepson namely Aftab Ahmad respondent No. 1. She married respondent No. 1 on 17th May, 1966 and claimed to have occupied the disputed property as full owner ever since that date. The trial Court decreed the suit but on appeal preferred by the petitioner the decree was set aside. Thereupon Mst. Amir Fatima filed civil revision challenging the appellate Court's judgment which was accepted on 27th February, 1985 by a learned Judge of the Lahore High Court, Rawalpindi Bench.
2. The main point which is being urged before us by the learned counsel for the petitioner is that the Appellate Court had specifically held that the suit of Mst. Amir Fatima was time-barred but the learned High Court Judge while exercising his revisional jurisdiction and restoring the decree awarded in favour of Mst. Amir Fatima by the trial Court had not at all adverted to the question of limitation. The contention needs further examination. Leave is granted. Security for costs Rs.1,000.
3. The appeal will be heard on the same record.
