The suit was filed by the plaintiffs/respondents herein towards arrears of rent, the subsequent interest and costs payable to the demised property let out to the appellant/defendant. The Lower Court after going through the evidence adduced before it had decreed the suit filed by the plaintiffs/respondents as prayed for with costs. CRP(NPD)2617 of 2008 This revision is filed by the defendant/revision petitioner against the order passed by the Lower Court in ordering the amendment of the decree during the pendency of the appeal preferred before this Court in A.S.No,37 of 1999.
