The Court granted the requested declaratory relief because there was a proven mutual mistake: the contracting party should have been the plaintiff in its capacity as general partner rather than the limited partnership itself, which lacks separate legal personality; the defendants adopted a neutral stance and did not oppose rectification; therefore a declaration rectifying the Agreement and ancillary documents to record the GP as the entering party was appropriate.
