CHAIRMAN CIRCULAR DATED OCTOBER 25, 2018



It has been noticed that the practice of completion of judgment within a reasonable time is not observed by some of the Learned Members and monthly disposal is not upto the mark keeping in view the huge backlog, which is against the Judicial norms as well as dimctions of the Honourable Supreme Court of Pakistan that "Proproper enunciation of law, considerable research, brooding and pondering the reasonable Hoe is 90 days which is adequate and good for completion of judgment". Non observance of the time frame in drafting the judgment is not only against the quoted judgment but also gives bad impression of the Tribunal. Needless to say that the delay in issuance of order attracts well legal maxim "justice delayed just. denied".

Furthermore, it is observed that the orders of MA Stay heard cases are not being issued in time which must be issued on the same date, or not to be delayed more than one working day.

ThereMre, all the Learned Members. of Appellate Tribunal Inland Revenue are ilin,cteil to deliver the judgment within a reasonable time by respectfully following the directions of Hon'able Supreme Court of Pakistan, and that the other member if so required, shall also get a reasonable time for countersignature and ensure the maximum ipeedy disposal without keeping any pendency.
