Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the High Court's order dated 09.04.2010, which set aside the Trial Court's decision allowing an amendment to the plaint under Order VI Rule 17 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The Court held that amendments should not introduce a new case or be belated, and in this instance, the amendment was deemed to be both belated and not bona fide. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's ruling and maintaining the status of the original partition claim.
