(3.) IT is the sweet will of the litigants to avail such remedy open to it under law against any judgment or order. It is also open to the State to file an appeal against the judgment of the writ Court but at the same time the State cannot blindly or without application of mind decide to file appeal in all matters in which request is sent. Office of the Legal Remembrancer (Law Secretary) is to examine as to whether or not any question of law arises for consideration and adjudication by the higher Courts and based upon such satisfaction that leave to file an appeal is granted.
