File fresh suit on the same cause of action

6. In case titled “Sh. Shajar Hussain v. Haji Abdul Majeed and others” (2006 SCMR 913), it has been held as under:-

“After hearing the learned counsel for both sides and taking into consideration the fact that the property was originally owned by the Panjnad Textile Mills, therefore, it was incumbent upon the plaintiff/petitioner to have impleaded it as party and in absence of the original owner decree passed shall cause injustice to it and such order would not be executable against a person who was not a party to the proceedings. Therefore, we accept the request of the learned counsel for the petitioner. As a result whereof petition is converted into appeal the impugned judgment dated 1-3-2000 as well as judgments dated 2-2-1998 and 15-7-1996 passed by the trial Court and First Appellate Court are set aside and permission is accorded to the petitioner to withdraw the civil suit and file fresh suit on the same cause of action in accordance with law. Parties to bear their own costs”
