About this template

What is this template?

This is a procedural court filing under the Code of Civil Procedure (CPC) for amending or adding trial issues. It is not a settlement agreement or a substantive response to a claim, but rather a motion to ensure specific preliminary objections are formally tried by the court.

When should you use it?

Use this when the court has already framed issues but omitted a vital point raised in your pleadings; use a Written Statement instead if you are responding to the claim for the first time.

Who it's for

  • a defendant in an Indian civil suit for specific performance seeking to correct a missed legal issue
  • a legal practitioner representing a party in a case governed by the Code of Civil Procedure
