Bombay High Court

RAMCHANDRA GANGADHAR KADAMversusTHE STATE OF MAHARASHTRA AND ORS

Disposal
PARTLY ALLOWED AND PARTLY DISMISSED

Holding

The court held that a typographical error in the record may be corrected to reflect the true intention of the parties.

Summary

The appellants filed a motion before the Bombay High Court, Aurangabad Bench, seeking correction of a typographical error in the chart of First Appeal No. 966 of 2019, where the land area was recorded as "8 R" instead of the correct "80 R". The learned Advocate for the appellants, G. K. Sontakke, highlighted the mistake and requested that the erroneous entry be rectified. The Court examined the motion and found no substantive dispute, merely a clerical error that could be corrected without prejudice to the parties. Accordingly, the Court ordered that the entry "8 R" be replaced with "80 R" and that the corrected copy be uploaded. The motion was thereafter disposed of.

Issues considered

  • Whether a typographical error in the court's chart can be corrected by amendment of the order

Subjects

  • typographical error
  • correction of record
  • civil procedure
  • High Court order
  • chart amendment
