Holding
The order may be corrected to reflect the proper name "Aanchal Chemicals" and to delete the word "also", and the praecipe is disposed.
Summary
The High Court heard applications for bail filed by four accused persons in separate bail applications (BA-1621-25, BA-1779-25, BA-2738-26, BA-4352-25). After the order dated 07.09.2026 was pronounced, the applicant’s counsel filed a praecipe on 08.09.2026 seeking correction of a clerical error – the name "Vighnahartha Logistics Company" was to be changed to "Aanchal Chemicals" and the word "also" in paragraph 8 was to be deleted. The Court examined the praecipe and found no substantive issue, only a need to rectify the typographical mistakes. Accordingly, the Court directed that the order be corrected as requested and that the corrected order be uploaded, leaving the rest of the order undisturbed. The praecipe was thereafter disposed.
Issues considered
- Whether the order dated 07.09.2026 may be corrected to amend clerical errors concerning the name of a party and an extraneous word?
Subjects
- bail
- praecipe
- clerical correction
- criminal appellate jurisdiction
