GHULAM JILANI ETC VS ADJ ETC
Summary: Order of withdrawal of petition passed on application filed by an unauthorized person recalled by holding that as the said order was void ab initio and had no legal existence, hence, question of limitation would not arise.
MUHAMMAD SHAFIQUE ETC VS MUHAMMAD SHABBIR ETC
Summary: Registration Act, 1908 --- Sections 32, 34, 77 ---Scope of suit under Section 77 confined to examining legality of refusal of registration and not validity of underlying transaction or title ---Power of attorney stands extinguished upon death of principal under Section 201 of the Contract Act, 1872.Where the principal had died before completion of the registration process, the attorney ceased to possess lawful authority to act on his behalf; consequently, refusal of registration by the Sub-Registrar was held lawful and justified.Appellate Court's reversal of the Trial Court's judgment found to be based on misreading and non-reading of evidence ---Judgment of Appellate Court set aside and dismissal of suit under Section 77 restored.Dismissal of a suit under Section 77 does not bar an independent suit for specific performance, as the remedies under the Registration Act and the Specific Relief Act operate in distinct fields and arise from separate causes of action.

Summary: Summary pending
MUHMMAD JAMEEL VS THE ADJ ETC
Summary: Following question of law has been put forth for determination by this Court: "What is the correct approach for a Court while appreciating evidence in cases where an alleged love marriage is relied upon by one party and allegations of abduction, coercion or forced marriage are raised by the other?" Held that while dealing with such cases, where the parties are completely strangers, the Courts are obligated to inquire as to how the alleged relationship originated and ultimately matured into a decision to contract marriage against wishes of the family. While the law does not require proof of a relationship through call records, social media exchanges, photographs or other forms of electronic communication, the complete absence of any material explaining the genesis of the alleged relationship remains a relevant circumstance while evaluating the plea of a consensual love marriage. Absence of any prior connection between the parties, becomes significant qua explanation as to how the alleged relationship came into existence.
