Legal Analysis and Course of Action Regarding PTET's Partial Compliance

Based on your description, a clear situation of partial and selective compliance with the Supreme Court's judgment dated 10th July 2025 has occurred. Here is a point-by-point analysis and recommended course of action.

1. Point of View / Legal Analysis

The Supreme Court's judgment, being a majority judgment, is the final and binding law of the land under Article 189 of the Constitution. The operative part of the judgment, as outlined in Paragraph 25, is clear:

· It dismissed specific CPLAs (including 6023 & 6095 of 2021).

· It upheld the impugned judgments of the High Courts.

· It held that employees who "were civil servants at the time of their transfer" are entitled to the continuation of pensionary benefits, "including revisions notified by the federal government."

PTET's Interpretation is Legally Flawed and Contemptuous:

1. Erroneous Categorization: PTET has created a sub-category within the class of "civil servants at the time of transfer." The Supreme Court defined the eligible class based on status at the moment of transfer from T&T to PTC in 1991. It did not limit the benefit only to those with a "Gazetted Officer, Class-I, Grade-17" initial appointment. If the 16 other respondents were employed in T&T in BPS scales (B-1 to B-22), held permanent roles, and were governed by the Civil Servants Act, 1973, they were civil servants. Their specific grade or class at initial appointment is irrelevant to the status of being a civil servant at the time of the corporatization.

2. Violation of the Court's Directive: By denying benefits to 16 out of 20 successful respondents from the same batch of cases, PTET is not acting in accordance with the judgment. This constitutes a willful disregard of the Court's clear directive to extend federal pension revisions to all transferred civil servants.

3. Contempt of Court: Such selective implementation, especially when it negates the relief granted by the Supreme Court to specific individuals (the respondents in CPLAs 6023 & 6095/2021), is a prima facie case of civil contempt. Contempt of court is defined as willful disobedience to any judgment, order, or process of the court.

2. Can the 16 Respondents File for Contempt?

Yes, absolutely. They have a strong legal basis to initiate contempt proceedings against PTET and/or its responsible officers for failing to implement the Supreme Court's judgment in their case.

3. Procedure and Method to Approach the Court

The process should be strategic and follow established legal protocol.

Step 1: Issue a Legal Notice (Highly Recommended - Not Always Mandatory but Prudent)

· Purpose: This serves as a formal, documented demand giving PTET one final chance to comply before approaching the Court. It strengthens the contempt case by demonstrating the respondents' attempt to seek voluntary compliance and the contemnor's (PTET's) willful refusal.

· Action: Engage a lawyer specializing in service matters, constitutional law, or contempt proceedings. The lawyer will draft a detailed Legal Notice.

· Content of Notice: It should:

  · Reference the Supreme Court Judgment (Civil Appeal No. 1509 of 2021 etc., dated 10.07.2025).

  · Identify the specific respondents and their connection to the dismissed CPLAs.

  · State the clear directive of the Court regarding civil servants at transfer.

  · Point out the illegal and selective implementation favoring only 4 respondents.

  · Demand full compliance, including payment of all arrears of revised pension, within a strict deadline (e.g., 14 days).

  · Clearly state that failure to comply will result in the initiation of contempt proceedings under Article 204 of the Constitution and the Contempt of Court Ordinance, 2003.

Step 2: Filing a Contempt Petition

If PTET does not comply with the legal notice, proceed to file a Constitutional Petition for Contempt directly in the Supreme Court of Pakistan.

· Why Supreme Court? Since the violated order/judgment is from the Supreme Court, the contempt petition lies with the Supreme Court itself to protect the sanctity of its own orders.

· Collective Action: The 16 respondents can and should file a SINGLE joint contempt petition. Their grievance arises from the same judgment, the same implementing body (PTET), and the same act of selective non-compliance. Filing jointly is more efficient, cost-effective, and presents a stronger, unified front. The petition will list all 16 as Petitioners.

· Engaging a Lawyer: You need to engage a lawyer now, for drafting the legal notice and the subsequent contempt petition. You require an Advocate of the Supreme Court (a lawyer enrolled to practice in the Supreme Court). Look for a lawyer or a firm with a proven track record in contempt matters and/or service jurisprudence. The Supreme Court Bar Association can be a resource for referrals.

· Timing: The legal notice should be sent immediately. The contempt petition can be filed soon after the deadline in the notice expires without compliance. There is no specific time "limitation" for filing contempt, but it should be done promptly to show the urgency of upholding the court's authority.

4. What to Expect in the Contempt Proceedings

1. Filing: Your lawyer will file the petition, attaching all documents: the Supreme Court judgment, the High Court order, proof of the 4 respondents receiving benefits, proof of the 16 being denied, and the legal notice with its proof of delivery.

2. Hearing: The Supreme Court will issue a notice to PTET and its responsible officers (Chairman, Trustees, CEO) to show cause as to why contempt proceedings should not be initiated against them.

3. PTET's Defense: They may try to justify their interpretation. The Court will examine if their interpretation is a bona fide effort or a willful misreading to avoid compliance.

4. Possible Outcomes:

   · The Court may declare PTET in contempt.

   · It will mandate immediate compliance for all 16 petitioners.

   · It may impose punitive costs on PTET.

   · In cases of persistent willful disobedience, the Court has the power to punish with imprisonment or fine (though this is rare for corporate entities, but fines are common).

Summary and Strong Recommendation

· PTET is acting unlawfully. Their distinction based on initial appointment gazette is a pretext not supported by the Supreme Court's judgment.

· The 16 respondents have a very strong case for contempt.

· Action Plan:

  1. Immediately consult and engage a competent Advocate of the Supreme Court.

  2. Through the lawyer, send a strong legal notice to PTET giving them a final short deadline.

  3. If no compliance, instruct the lawyer to file a joint Contempt Petition in the Supreme Court of Pakistan on behalf of all 16 affected individuals.

  4. The petition should seek: (a) a declaration of contempt, (b) immediate payment of all revised pension arrears, (c) costs of litigation, and (d) any other punitive order the Court deems fit.

Do not delay. Every month of delay means a month of denied rightful pension. The Supreme Court has already decided your substantive right; now you must enforce it through contempt proceedings.
