 2023 SCMR 1434

Scope of constitutional jurisdiction of the High Court while hearing petitions against appellate decisions , particularly in family cases --- In the absence of a second appeal , the decision of the appellate court is considered final on the facts and it is not for High Court in its constitutional jurisdiction to offer another opportunity of hearing , especially in family cases where the legislature's intent to not prolong the dispute is clear --- High Court in its constitutional jurisdiction should not substitute and adjudicate on the facts and tender its opinion , as it amounts to having an appeal out of the Appellate Court's judgment .
