The Court held the typo in the Consent Order was a clerical mistake correctable under Order 20 rule 11 and the Court's inherent jurisdiction; the Appellant had standing notwithstanding expired business registration (partners had relief under s8(1) affirmed by higher courts); the Consent Order was not frustrated or discharged by the judge's death; accordingly the Consent Order dated 27.05.2018 is amended to correct the Sessions Court judgment date from 05.09.2017 to 04.09.2017 and no costs were awarded.

WA-22NCC-14-01/2020 (Mahkamah Tinggi)

The amendment application was dismissed because the substitution of the original 290 titles with 120 new titles is a substantive change, not a clerical or accidental slip within Order 20 Rule 11; the judgment was sealed and the Court is functus officio; allowing the amendment would alter parties' rights and prejudice third parties and raises novel legal questions (including operation of s131 NLC) that require full hearing, not correction under the Slip Rule.
