A checklist has many task\_status, I have displayed the view in nested  
model atttributes form,  
checklist\_instance attributes and its associated nested attributes are  
getting updated correctly.  
while i try to update user information to the checklist instance, the  
following updates only if the updated\_by\_user is not same as  
@authenticated\_user.

def update  
@checklist\_instance.attributes = params[:checklist\_instance]  
@checklist\_instance.updated\_by\_user = @authenticated\_user  
if @checklist\_instance.save  
flash[:notice] = ‘Checklist was successfully updated.’  
redirect\_to\_edit  
end  
end

Could anyone suggest me a solution for this…
