Judgment text as reported

KANWAR NAVEED JAMEEL VS PROVINCE OF SINDH Pt.1, Chap. II, R.10---Constitution of Pakistan, Art. 199---Constitutional petition before the (Sindh) High Court---Request for formation of a larger Bench---Petitioner contended that the present case was a particularly complex case and required formation of a larger bench of ten (10) Judges of the (Sindh) High Court, and the present bench should make such a request to the Chief Justice of (Sindh) High Court---Validity---Brief review of the present Constitutional petition showed that there were no undue legal complexities or other compelling reasons which would justify the petition being referred to the Chief Justice to establish a larger bench of the (Sindh) High Court to hear the petition especially given the back log of cases in the (Sindh) High Court which need to be attended to---Notably request for a larger bench was not made when the petition was filed but instead had been made after 8 separate hearing dates, which indicated that it was an afterthought prima facie with the intention of delaying the hearing of the present petition for which the counsel for the petitioners obtained an ex-parte stay order on the first day of hearing---Statement/application requesting to ask the Chief Justice of the (Sindh) High Court to form a larger ten member bench was dismissed.
