Holding
The Court held that it may correct clerical and typographical errors in its judgments without affecting the substantive decision and therefore allowed the petitions.
Summary
The Supreme Court delivered a judgment on 21 May 2014 in MD Jamiluddin Nasir v. State of West Bengal concerning an alleged offence of waging war against the State under IPC 121. Subsequent to that judgment, the parties filed criminal miscellaneous petitions seeking correction of typographical and factual errors in the judgment and order. The Court examined the office and registry reports and concluded that, under its inherent powers, it may amend its judgments to rectify clerical mistakes without altering the substantive findings. Accordingly, it ordered that the specific corrections listed in Annexure A be incorporated into the judgment. The petitions were allowed, and the corrected judgment now reflects the accurate facts and citations while leaving the original legal conclusions unchanged.
Issues considered
- Whether the Supreme Court can correct typographical and factual errors in its judgment through criminal miscellaneous petitions.
- Whether such corrections would affect the substantive outcome of the original judgment.
