COMMENTARY ON ASSIGNMENT 02 : S1 : 2014

CIP3701/202/1/2014



Question 1

The most accurate statement is: (3)
A claim for damages due to breach of contract is classified as an unliquidated claim. This term refers to
any claim where the amount must be determined, or where the status of the parties is influenced. In
instances where the claim is not for a debt or a liquidated demand, the plaintiff is required to attach to the
summons the particulars of the material facts relied upon in support of the claim, known as the
“particulars of claim” (refer to Uniform Rule 17(2)). Additional reference can be found in study unit
6.3.2 – 6.3.3.

Option (1) is incorrect, as a claim for damages does not qualify as a liquidated claim. The term
“liquidated claim” has been interpreted to mean a claim for a fixed or definite amount, such as those for
transfer or ejectment, delivery of goods, or cancellation of a contract. Courts have indicated that a debt is
liquidated if it is acknowledged or if its monetary value can be quickly ascertained. The distinction
between “liquidated demand” and “unliquidated claim” can be understood better through this contrast: an
unliquidated claim cannot be quickly calculated, and determining the quantum of damages often
requires extensive evidence from expert witnesses (see study unit 6.2.2).

Option (2) is incorrect because “illiquid claim” is not a recognized legal term. The term illiquid
summons procedure exists (see study unit 3.2 and 6.1), which includes two types of summonses: the
simple summons and the combined summons.

Option (4) is incorrect since a liquid claim must be based on a liquid document. A liquid document is
defined as one where the debtor acknowledges their liability for a certain and ascertainable amount of
money, either through their signature or as legally deemed. Common examples include cheques, where
the payee acknowledges liability for a fixed sum (see study unit 7.2.2.1).



Question 2

The most accurate statement is: (2)
A combined summons is employed when the nature of the plaintiff’s claim is unliquidated, meaning it is
not a claim for a debt or a liquidated demand (see Uniform Rule 17(2)(a) – Rule 5(2)(a) in the
Magistrates’ Court).
