The Maulvi Tamizuddin case challenged the Governor General of Pakistan's dissolution of the Constituent Assembly in 1954. The Sind Chief Court initially ruled in favor of Maulvi Tamizuddin, invalidating the Governor General's proclamation. However, the Federal Court overturned this decision, holding that the enactments of the Constituent Assembly required the assent of the Governor General. One judge dissented, stating that the Constituent Assembly was a sovereign body that could amend the statutes under which the Governor General functioned.
