Subsequent Official Notification Issued By Additional Registrar Justice Babar Sattar’s
Mr. Ijaz Ahmed announced the sanctioning of the leave by the Additional Registrar of the Islamabad High Court through an official notification.

The leave approval depends on the internal issuance by the Islamabad High Court’s Chief Justice, Justice Aamer Farooq.
Soft cancellation of a cause list while on sanctioned leave
The leave notification also states that to bring Babar Sattar on with leave, the cause list for His Court will stand suspended for his leave, which is quite troublesome.
