Section 151 CPC | Failure to Amend Cause Title After Impleadment Is Ministerial, Not Fatal: Karnataka HC (Dharwad)
The Karnataka High Court has ruled that omitting a consequential amendment to the cause title after impleadment is a mere ministerial oversight, not a ground to dismiss a Section 151 application. This clarifies that procedural technicalities cannot override substantive justice in property disputes, empowering litigants to correct clerical errors without risking dismissal of their claims.
