====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE PRABHAT KUMAR JHA ORAL ORDER 01-10-2018 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. The petitioner has filed this Civil Misc. petition against the order dated 21.06.2018 passed in Title Suit No. 1072 of 2016 whereby the learned Sub Judge-IV, Vaishali at Hajipur allowed the amendment petition of the plaintiffs. The petitioner is the defendant 1st set. The plaintiffs wanted to insert in the plaint that ancestor of the plaintiffs
Patna High Court C.Misc. No.1242 of 2018 (2) dt.01-10-2018 2/2 compromised Title Suit No. 14 of 1985 and plaintiffs wanted to insert this fact in the plaint and the same was allowed. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the judgement and decree passed in Title Suit No. 14 of 1985 suffers from res judicata but the learned court below did not give any finding on this point and allowed the amendment petition. Admittedly the suit is pending for appearance of many of the defendants. At the time of amendment of plaint the court is not at all required to deal with the merit of the amendment sought for and, thus, I find that the learned Sub Judge has rightly allowed the amendment petition. Accordingly, I do not find any merit in this Civil Misc. petition and the same is dismissed. (Prabhat Kumar Jha, J) BKS/- U
