It cannot be used to resolve disputed questions of intention or to rewrite antecedent transaction documents such as an agreement for sale. Where the alleged mistake is fundamental and would require evidence on what property the parties meant to deal with, rectification lies in a suit under the Specific Relief Act, not by summary correction. Relief may also be refused where inordinate unexplained delay has caused prejudice or third-party rights have intervened. en-us Wed, 23 May 1951 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 08 May 2024 14:10:46 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=313923 Section 152 CPC is confined to correcting clerical errors, arithmetical mistakes, and accidental slips in a court's own judgment, decree, or order, where the intended description is clear.
