Judgment text as reported

CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY, CDA through Chairman, CDA, Islamabad VS AHMED MURTAZA O. XXVIII, R. a(3)---Constitution of Pakistan, arts. 9 & 37(d)---Frivolous litigation---Wasting time of Court---Special costs---Supreme Court can impose costs, to curb frivolous litigation, for prolonging the agony of the respondents and wasting the time of the Supreme Court which could be spent in resolving legitimate disputes---Such frivolous litigation overburdens the Supreme Court with vexatious cases thereby delaying and thus denying the rightful claim of access to justice guaranteed under article 9 of the Constitution---Such frivolous litigation also impairs expeditious justice and offends article 37(d) of the Principles of Policy under the Constitution---Court time can be well spent on handling genuine cases as opposed to pursuing cases which are vexatious and meritless on their face and which have already been decided between the parties.
