If a judgment has been passed in your favor but contains major factual, legal, or clerical errors, you have limited time and specific remedies to seek correction or review.
Legal Remedies to Correct the Judgment:
1. Review Petition
File a Review Petition before the same court that passed the judgment, pointing out apparent errors or injustice despite the favorable outcome.
2. Application for Modification/Clarification
If the court’s intent was in your favor but certain findings, directions, or reliefs are unclear, contradictory, or missing, file an Application for Clarification or Modification.
3. Rectification of Clerical/Arithmetical Mistake
For typing, numerical or calculation mistakes, move an application under Section 152 CPC or relevant CrPC provision (in criminal cases).
4. Writ Petition / Appeal (only if necessary)
If the judgment, although in your favor, causes prejudice or future legal harm, an Appeal or Writ under Article 226/227 may still be filed to correct the error.
Latest relevant case law:-
Kamlesh Verma v. Mayawati (2013) 8 SCC 320
"Review jurisdiction is not an appeal in disguise. But review is maintainable where there is a glaring omission or patent mistake apparent on the face of the judgment."
If you give me the power to handle the matter then I will carefully analyze the judgment line-by-line, identify all errors of law or fact, and draft a precise and strategic petition for review or correction.
I will file and argue before the same bench to protect your winning position while fixing the flaws—without risking reversal.
I’ll handle time-barred objections and limitation defense (if filed late) with the best legal precedent.
Let me handle this delicately and strongly—so that your win stays intact, but every mistake is lawfully corrected.

you may file a review petition and get it corrected.
You can not dictate a judge as to how to write a judgement plugging your concerns. You can only challenge the order or judgment in higher court.
