1 - 6 of 6 (0.28 seconds)J.Samuel & Ors vs Gattu Mhesh & Ors on 16 January, 2012
17. In light of the aforesaid enunciation, if the present controversy is
appreciated, the application for amendment doesn't reflect that even after 'due
diligence', the petitioner/plaintiff could not have raised this aspect prior to
commencement of trial. Admittedly, in the written statement the aforesaid fact
was already brought to the knowledge of the petitioner/plaintiff by the
respondent/defendant but even thereafter, the petitioner/plaintiff didn't cared to
carry out the said amendment. Further from bare perusal of the application for
amendment, two contrary pleas have been taken by the petitioner/plaintiff; one is
that of due to some illusion, this fact could not be mentioned in the plaint and
contrary to this, the said mistake was committed due to typographical error. The
aforesaid aspect has been depreciated by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the matter
of J. Samuel & Others vs. Gattu Mahesh (supra) as cited by counsel for the
respondent/defendant. For reference, paras 21 and 22 are quoted hereinbelow:

be refused to carry out the amendment merely because of some mistake,
negligence, inadvertence or even infraction of the Rules of procedure and the
Court should always give leave to amend the pleading of a party, unless it is
satisfied that the party applying was acting malafide, or that by his blunder, he
has caused injury to his opponent which may not be compensated for by an
order of costs and however negligent or careless may have been the first
omission and however late the proposed amendment, the amendment should be
allowed if it can be made without injustice to the other side and as the present
respondent/defendant could not show that any prejudice or injury caused to
them, the learned Trial Court was bound to allow the said application.
