This query is : Resolved
dear sir,
the defendant aagainst whom i havve filed a case in del high court for posession of my property has moved an app for amendment of ws , one and a half years later, when all evidences have been filed and i am due for cross examination on april 18.
he has stated in the app that amendment is sought to 'raise a legal plea'
kindly explain what is meant by to ' raise a legal plea'. it makes no sense to me.
further no fresh docs are being produced or fresh pleadings , other than the old through mild changes in language.
my second query is:-
if his app for amendment is rejected if we oppose it, he will go for review.
will the app for review , when filed in case his ws amendment app is rejected, delay my trial which is at cross examination stage.
or will the trial continue as it is and the app for review be considered later?
kindly enlighten

Your opponent does not have good ground for amendment unless he needs to incorporate certain facts which could be ve=be stated earlier.
Review petition is hardly allowed.
Unless the Review petition is disposed off the court can not proceed with the trial.

an application for amendment is being made after evidence has been filed . the court may disallow the said amendments as trial has already commenced . if his application for amendment is rejected he may go in for appeal not review.

The amendment at belated stages are rarely granted, because then the other party gets to rebut the new pleadings.

If an amendment in WS is allowed then court shall ask plaintiff to file a replica over amended portion of WS shall re look, if any additional issue arises,and then you shall need to file a rejoinder affidavit chief to meet the amended portion of the case.
