Judgment text as reported

COLLECTOR OF CUSTOMS COLLECTORATE OF CUSTOMS (APPRAISEMENT) (WEST), LAHORE VS MUHAMMAD RIZWAN. Blackstonian view---Scope---Courts do not make laws, they only declare what the law has been. When a Court interprets a statute, under the Blackstonian view that is deemed to be a true meaning from the date of existence of the statute and interpretation is given from the date of its creation. Interpretation and judicial pronouncement is always retrospective in its operation, whereas the contrary is only an exception under severe circumstances.
