, THE QUESTION PAPER:
QUESTION 1: CIVIL PRACTICE [50]
1.1 Darren Smith is the director and shareholder of DSA Equipment (Pty) Ltd (“DSA”) and
the company manufactures medica electronic equipment. Mr. Smith approached EBA (Pty)
Ltd (“EBA”), the local supplier of the components needed for the manufacturing of the
electronic equipment by DSA, and the parties entered into a written agreement for the supply
and delivery of the components on 30-day credit terms. The goods are delivered by EBA to
DSA’s premises and a copy of the invoice to the value of R1,5 million is handed to Mr. Smith
who was present to receive them. Despite numerous calls followed by a formal letter of
demand addressed to DSA for payment of the outstanding amount following the expiry of the
30-day period, EBA does not receive any formal response from DSA and/or Mr. Smith. EBA
(Pty) Ltd now wants to institute legal proceedings to recover the outstanding amount. EBA’s
director approaches you for legal advice or assistance regarding the proceedings that can be
instituted for the recovery of the outstanding amount from DSA.
Answer all the following questions, using proper references. Note: In your answers, you are
required to make up facts to supplement the given facts of the case in so far as your own
rendition does not detract from the core issues.
(a) Discuss the type of court proceedings that must be used to institute EBA’s claim. (4)
(b) Assuming that DSA opposes EBA’s claim, discuss whether summary judgment may be
used in the above instance. (4)
(c) Assuming that there is no application for summary judgment, name and discuss the
pleading that must be drafted by EBA in response to DSA’s intention to defend the matter.
(4)
(d) Draft the pleading referred to in (c) above. It must include, inter alia, a heading, the
description of the parties, their locus standi (if applicable), the court’s jurisdiction, material
facts and the prayer. (20)
