#civil amendment

Madras HC dismissed a civil revision, holding that an amendment under Order VI Rule 17 CPC is valid despite technical non-compliance or a more specific rule, and that internal society election disputes lie with the Registrar of Societies. Litigants can therefore amend pleadings without risk of dismissal on procedural grounds.

The Andhra Pradesh High Court ruled that plaintiffs can amend pleadings under Order 6 Rule 17 CPC to claim future mesne profits even after trial begins, provided the court fee is determined post-judicial inquiry. This holding reinforces procedural flexibility in property disputes, ensuring substantive justice prevails over technical objections.
