Petitioner is the plaintiff in O.S.No.85 of 2007 on the<\/p>\n<p>file of the Munsiff Court, Nadapuram.            Suit is one for<\/p>\n<p>perpetual prohibitory injunction, and the respondents are the<\/p>\n<p>defendants.    After the suit came up for trial, the plaintiff<\/p>\n<p>moved an application for amendment of the plaint to seek<\/p>\n<p>additional reliefs of mandatory injunction and also a<\/p>\n<p>declaration that the respondents\/defendants have no right of<\/p>\n<p>way through her property.      That application was opposed to<\/p>\n<p>by the defendants by filing objections. The learned Munsiff,<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_1\">WPC.34250\/08                    2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>after hearing both sides, dismissed the application. Propriety<\/p>\n<p>and correctness of that application is challenged in the writ<\/p>\n<p>petition invoking the supervisory jurisdiction vested with this<\/p>\n<p>Court under <a href=\"\/doc\/1331149\/\" id=\"a_1\">Article 227<\/a> of the Constitution of India.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_4\">      3.  I heard the learned counsel on both sides.          The<\/p>\n<p>learned counsel for the petitioner\/plaintiff submitted that the<\/p>\n<p>amendment sought for is essential to resolve the controversies<\/p>\n<p>involved in the suit and to avoid multiplicity of suits. After the<\/p>\n<p>institution of the suit, a concrete slab was put over a channel<\/p>\n<p>to connect the property of the defendants with that of the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner\/plaintiff, and by way of a decree of mandatory<\/p>\n<p>injunction, that slab is sought to be removed, and as the<\/p>\n<p>defendants have raised a contention that they have a right of<\/p>\n<p>way through the property of the plaintiff, a decree of<\/p>\n<p>declaration that no such way existed through the plaint<\/p>\n<p>property is also sought for, submits the counsel. Conceding<\/p>\n<p>that even in the Commission report collected immediately<\/p>\n<p>after the filing of the suit and also in the written statement,<\/p>\n<p>reference is made to the installing of a new concrete slab, as<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_1\">WPC.34250\/08                   3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>indicated above, it is submitted, there was no wilful laches or<\/p>\n<p>deliberate default on the part of the petitioner\/plaintiff in<\/p>\n<p>moving for an amendment before the commencement of the<\/p>\n<p>trial.  On the other hand, the learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>respondents\/defendants submitted that absolute lack of<\/p>\n<p>diligence on the part of the petitioner\/plaintiff, is borne out by<\/p>\n<p>the facts and circumstances presented in the case in applying<\/p>\n<p>for the proposed amendment.       Petitioner\/Plaintiff was aware<\/p>\n<p>of the presence of the slab soon after the filing of the suit, and<\/p>\n<p>that was specifically stated in the written statement of the<\/p>\n<p>defendants also, submits the counsel. Inviting my attention to<\/p>\n<p>the proviso to Order VI Rule 17 of the Code of Civil Procedure,<\/p>\n<p>the learned counsel for the respondents\/defendants submitted<\/p>\n<p>that in the absence of the party showing that the amendment<\/p>\n<p>could not have been sought for earlier, the court has no<\/p>\n<p>jurisdiction to entertain amendment application after the<\/p>\n<p>commencement of the trial.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_5\">\n<p id=\"p_6\">      4.  I have perused Ext.P1 order passed by the court<\/p>\n<p>below taking note of the submissions made by the counsel on<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_2\">WPC.34250\/08                     4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>both sides. The amendment was sought for belatedly, is the<\/p>\n<p>main reason which persuaded the learned Munsiff to disallow<\/p>\n<p>the request of the plaintiff for claiming additional reliefs in the<\/p>\n<p>suit.   The crucial question that has to be looked into in<\/p>\n<p>examining the merit of the application for amendment is<\/p>\n<p>whether it is required for resolving the controversies arising<\/p>\n<p>for adjudication in the suit.     Of course, the impact of the<\/p>\n<p>proviso to Order VI Rule 17 of the CPC has also to be taken<\/p>\n<p>note of in appreciating whether the proposed amendment is<\/p>\n<p>allowable or not. In analysing the impact of the provision, it<\/p>\n<p>is also to be looked into what is the prejudice, if any, caused to<\/p>\n<p>the opposite side if the amendment is allowed. I do not think<\/p>\n<p>that the proviso to Order VI Rule 17 of CPC has been brought<\/p>\n<p>in to deny any amendment that is proposed after the<\/p>\n<p>commencement of the trial.        However, proviso imposes an<\/p>\n<p>interdiction that when such an amendment is sought for after<\/p>\n<p>the commencement of the trial, the party seeking it should<\/p>\n<p>show that in spite of due diligence, the amendment could not<\/p>\n<p>be applied for earlier. Of course, in the given facts of the<\/p>\n<p>case, the petitioner\/plaintiff was fully aware of the existence of<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_3\">WPC.34250\/08                   5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>the concrete slab, which is alleged to have been installed,<\/p>\n<p>according to her, immediately after the filing of the suit. The<\/p>\n<p>respondents\/defendants in the written statement also had<\/p>\n<p>adverted to the presence of the concrete slab, which<\/p>\n<p>according to them, gave access to the pathway, running<\/p>\n<p>through the property of the petitioner\/plaintiff. Whether those<\/p>\n<p>circumstances by themselves would constitute laches on the<\/p>\n<p>part of the plaintiff in moving an amendment earlier is the<\/p>\n<p>question that emerges for consideration. It has to be pointed<\/p>\n<p>out that the pleadings are the handworks of the professionals<\/p>\n<p>and not of the parties. Any defect in the pleadings very often<\/p>\n<p>comes to the notice of the party only when the case comes up<\/p>\n<p>for trial.  Proviso to Order VI Rule 17 of CPC is not intended<\/p>\n<p>to bar all amendments proposed after the commencement of<\/p>\n<p>the trial, but, only such amendments which are likely to delay<\/p>\n<p>and protract the proceedings, and thus prevent the completion<\/p>\n<p>of the trial once it is commenced. The words &#8220;due diligence&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>should receive a liberal interpretation and it cannot be given a<\/p>\n<p>narrow and limited meaning that any lapse on the part of the<\/p>\n<p>party in seeking amendment should be subjected to strict<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_4\">WPC.34250\/08                    6<\/span><\/p>\n<p>scrutiny to find out whether that party could have moved that<\/p>\n<p>application at an earlier point of time. The totality of the facts<\/p>\n<p>and   circumstances    involved,    the  reliefs  claimed,    the<\/p>\n<p>amendment proposed, everything have to be taken into<\/p>\n<p>account by the court in judging the conduct of the party to<\/p>\n<p>examine whether there was absence of due diligence in<\/p>\n<p>moving the proposed amendment earlier. So long as there is<\/p>\n<p>absence of culpable neglect or wilful default, and especially in<\/p>\n<p>a case where it is shown that the proposed amendment is<\/p>\n<p>essential to resolve the controversies involved, the court<\/p>\n<p>should incline to grant the amendment, so that multiplicity of<\/p>\n<p>proceedings could be avoided.       The learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner submitted that petitioner is confining the proposed<\/p>\n<p>amendment only for seeking the decree of mandatory<\/p>\n<p>injunction alone for removal of the slab and not pressing the<\/p>\n<p>other one for the declaration that there is no pathway through<\/p>\n<p>the property. It is further submitted that no further evidence<\/p>\n<p>is also necessary by allowing the proposed amendment as the<\/p>\n<p>particulars furnished in the commission report are sufficient<\/p>\n<p>to consider the question emerging by that amendment.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_5\">WPC.34250\/08                    7<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Taking note of the submissions made and making it clear that<\/p>\n<p>the amendment will be limited to the manner indicated by the<\/p>\n<p>counsel, and no further opportunity will be provided to the<\/p>\n<p>plaintiff to take out a commission in the case, I direct the court<\/p>\n<p>below to allow the amendment of the plaint only in respect of<\/p>\n<p>the mandatory injunction sought for.              The proposed<\/p>\n<p>amendment limited as indicated shall be granted subject to<\/p>\n<p>the payment of costs of Rs.750\/- to the defendants within the<\/p>\n<p>time fixed by the court below. The defendants shall be given<\/p>\n<p>opportunity to file additional written statement.             The<\/p>\n<p>amendment being carried out, both sides will be given<\/p>\n<p>opportunity to examine parties on that limited question alone.<\/p>\n<p>Writ petition is disposed in the manner indicated above.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_7\">                            S.S.SATHEESACHANDRAN<br \/>\n                                       JUDGE<\/p>\n<p>prp<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala High Court Kandoth Thamasikkum Chathialam &#8230; vs Chathialam Veettil Parvathi on 9 September, 2009 IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM WP(C).No. 34250 of 2008(B) 1.
