Order XI Rule 1(5) CPC | Bombay HC Permits Late Document Production If Referenced in Plaint and No Prejudice to Defendant
Bombay High Court rules that documents expressly referred to in the plaint may be produced later under Order XI Rule 1(5) CPC, provided no prejudice is caused to the defendant. The decision underscores procedural fairness by allowing plaintiffs to submit evidence post-filing if already mentioned in the pleadings, balancing efficiency with due process.
