Amendment of pleadings. Pre-trial amendments stand on a distinctly different footing. In a passing-off action under the Trade Marks Act, pleadings relating to the adoption of the mark, prior and continuous use, goodwill, reputation, and the likelihood of deception are fundamental to the cause of action. An amendment elaborating these material facts cannot be rejected merely because it is sought after the filing of the written statement. Karnataka High Court.

The remedy is to execute the compromise decree. Karnataka High Court. 2026 Daksha Legal Kar 904
