==History==

===Creation===
In 1849, the [[East India Company]] defeated the [[Sikh Empire]] and assumed control of administration within the [[Punjab]]. A Board of Administration was constituted and the [[Punjab]]  was divided into Divisions, Districts and Tehsils. The Divisions were controlled by Commissioners, Districts by Deputy Commissioners and Tehsils by an Assistant and Extra Assistant Commissioners.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://lhc.gov.pk/history|title=History of the High Court &#124; Lahore High Court|access-date=6 February 2021|archive-date=1 March 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210301213932/https://lhc.gov.pk/history|url-status=live}}</ref>

The Board of Administration consisted of [[Henry Montgomery Lawrence|Sir Henry Lawrence]], [[John Lawrence, 1st Baron Lawrence|John Lawrence]] and [[Charles Grenville Mansel]]<ref name=":1">{{cite web|url=http://lhc.gov.pk/history|title=History of The High Court|website=Lahore High Court|access-date=22 September 2023|archive-date=18 June 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220618091937/https://lhc.gov.pk/history|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== Chief Court of the Punjab Lahore High Court ===
[[File:Lahore High Court 1880s.jpg|thumb|left|Lahore High Court in the 1880s]]
In 1858 the Punjab, along with the rest of [[British India]], came under the direct rule of the [[British crown]]  and decisions with regard to administration and justice were now made under the authority of the monarch, [[Queen Victoria]].<ref name="victoriap221">[[#Hibbert|Hibbert 2000]], p. 221</ref> By 1864, a proliferation of court cases necessitated an expansion to the judicial structure in the province. The Punjab Courts Act, (XIX of 1865) introduced seven grades of courts, combining judicial and administrative functions and claiming jurisdiction over civil and criminal cases. The Court of Tehsildar was the lowest court, whilst the Court of the Judicial Commissioner became the highest court in the land.<ref>Nasser Hussain, The Jurisprudence of Emergency: Colonialism and the Rule of Law, University of Michigan Press, 11 Nov 2009, {{ISBN|0472023519}}, 9780472023516, p.148</ref>

Over time, as appeals to the Chief Court greatly increased, later Acts namely the Punjab Courts Act, (XVII of 1877) and Punjab Courts Act, (XVIII of 1884) repealed earlier Acts and restated the law regarding the courts' constitution, powers and jurisdiction.<ref name=":1"/> Additional judges were appointed, and greater finality was granted to the decisions of the lower appellate courts.<ref name=":1"/> By 1884, there were four classes of courts subordinate to the Chief Court, namely the Divisional Court, the Court of the District Judge, the Court of the Subordinate Judge, the Court of Munsif.<ref>{{cite web |author=FBR |url=https://www.fbr.gov.pk/categ/service-matter/677 |title=Lahore High Court – Federal Board Of Revenue Government Of Pakistan |publisher=Fbr.gov.pk |date= |accessdate=2022-04-12 |archive-date=13 February 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210213133843/https://www.fbr.gov.pk/categ/service-matter/677 |url-status=live }}</ref>

===Lahore High Court===
On 1 October 1882, the Chief Court of the [[Punjab]] Court was elevated to the status of a Lahore High Court, becoming known as Lahore High Court, [[George V|King-Emperor George V]] also appointed a [[Chief Justice]]  and six puisne justices, and declared the Court's jurisdiction over the [[Punjab]] and [[Delhi]]  provinces.<ref name=":1"/>

[[Government of India Act 1935|The Government of India Act, 1935]] removed the barrier that the Chief Justice must be a Barrister Judge and opened the position to Civilian Judges. An age limit of 60 years was set for High Court Judges.<ref name=":1"/>

By virtue of the Government of India (High Court Judges) Order, 1937, a maximum number of Judges for the various High Courts in India was fixed. In each case the number so stated was exclusive of the Chief Justice but included all additional judges. For the Lahore High Court the maximum number was fixed at 15.<ref name=":1"/>

===The West Pakistan High Court===
On 30 September 1955, the [[Constituent Assembly of Pakistan]] established the province of [[West Pakistan]], and gave the Governor-General the power to establish the [[West Pakistan High Court]], which was established in 1956. Judges from the Chief Court of Sind and the Judicial Commissioners Court at [[Peshawar]]  became [[judge]]s  at the West [[Pakistan]]  [[High Court]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://150.lhc.gov.pk/ |title=150 Years of Lahore High Court! |publisher=150.lhc.gov.pk |date= |accessdate=2022-04-12 |archive-date=8 February 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210208093432/https://150.lhc.gov.pk/ |url-status=live }}</ref>

===Creation Of Divisional Benches===
On 1 January 1981, it was ordered that the Lahore High Court  would create benches at [[Bahawalpur]], [[Multan]] and [[Rawalpindi]]. The order also specified that the Lahore High Court [[judge]]s  could hold [[circuit court]]s anywhere in the province, with judges nominated by the Lahore High Court  [[Chief Justice]].{{fact|date=June 2023}}

==Chief Justices==
The first Chief Justice at Lahore was [[Henry Plowden|Sir Henry Meredyth Plowden]] in 1880.  The current Chief Justice is [[Aalia Neelum]], incumbent since 11 July 2024.
