Supreme Court of Connecticut June 15, 1840 (Betts v. Hoyt)

Church, J.

The allowance, or disallowance, of amendments, is within the discretionary power of the courts, in the absence of statute regulations. The time, beyond which an amendment may not be allowed, has not been prescribed, by any statute of this state. At common law, amendments of pleadings have been permitted, at any time before judgment. Co. Litt. 280. 1 Petersd. Abr. 504. 539. a.
