\writ

\cl This file is intended to demonstrate various things, such as the way in which the names and addresses of the parties are formatted. If the command |\writ| immediately above this clause is changed to |\os| the file will be formatted as an Originating Summons.

\cl The addresses of the parties will be left blank in the writ or originating summons. If they are know they can be inserted by using the command |\of{Brookfield Farm, Ambridge|. Two parties having the same address can be linked by the word |\and|; this will, as might be expected, insert “and” between their names. If there are, say, three parties having the same address the first two can be linked by |\nand| and the second and third by |\and|. (The macros which achieve this are not yet perfect, however.) If one address is given, then an address must be given for all parties, even if it takes the form |\of{\noaddr|.

\cl \TeX\ can produce various accents, although there are not, of course, many accented English words. Here are a few accents. Pr\^et \‘a na\"\i ve.

\cl The Plaintiffs were induced to enter into an agreement by the representation of the Defendants that the Defendants had an account at the Borchester Branch of B.C.C.I. from which a certain sum would be paid. The representation was implied by the drawing of a cheque by the Defendants. The representation was untrue in that the Defendants had no such account. The representation was made falsely and fraudulently by the Defendants in order to induce the Plaintiffs to deliver a motor car to the Defendants. This paragraph has been adapted from Volume~39 of \bo Atkin’s Court Forms\ok and is as such is no doubt copyright (\copyright) Butterworths.

\cl Note that one of the items set out at the top of the file and referred to above is |\colsref{SUEGRA/2|. This is the case reference as it appears in the ACE accounting system. \LeXTeX\ extracts Sue Grabbit \& Runne’s name and address from a file and inserts it into the proper place in this document. Note that |SUEGRA| must be in capitals and that the initials of the Counsel concerned are set in the |RHLOCAL| file which accompanies \LeXTeX.

\cl If this is an Originating Summons then of course the next command should be removed.

\claim

\cl An Order that the Defendants should do something or other

\cl Liberty to apply

\cl Costs

\amended\soc

\cl The command |\soc| produceds a Statement of Claim. If it is changed to, for example, |\defence| the format of the document will change. (Note that if a Writ and a Defence are inclided in the same file \LeXTeX\ may become slightly confused as to which party you are acting.) The command |\amended| produces an amended Statement of Claim or other document.

\cl The \forwhom\ \wants\ that the statements of the \notforwhom\ are a load of piffle. (It is not, of course, normal to use {\tt\string\forwhom, {\tt\string\notforwhom and {\tt\string\wants in this way; you are expected to know for whom you act.)

\cl How about an accent or two? Pr\^et \‘a na\"\i ve.

\cl The Plaintiffs were induced to enter into an agreement by the representation of the Defendants that the Defendants had an account at the Borchester Branch of B.C.C.I. from which a certain sum would be paid. {\xo The representation was implied by the drawing of a cheque by the Defendants. {\ul The representation was contained in a letter from the Defendants to the Plaintiffs dated the 20th July 1991. The representation was untrue in that the Defendants had no such account. The representation was made falsely and fraudulently by the Defendants in order to induce the Plaintiffs to deliver a motor car to the Defendants. This paragraph has been adapted from Volume~39 of \bo Atkin’s Court Forms\ok and is as such no doubt copyright (\copyright) Butterworths.

\deponent{JACK WOOLEY \of{Gray Gables, Ambridge, Borchester \occupation{Hotel Proprietor

\affidavit

\cl The command |\deponent| must precede the command |\affidavit|. The commands |\of{[address]| and |\occupation{[Occupation]| are optional; if they are omitted a suitable comment will be added.

\cl I am the owner of the above-mentioned hotel.

\cl There is now \exhibited the Conveyance of it to me dated the 1st April 1955. Note that the exhibits are automatically numbered by the cfommand |\exhibited| and the similar command |\bundled|.

\cl The accounts for the last five years are now \bundled.

\cl If an affidavit is the only document in the file \LeXTeX\ will assume that it is to be filed on behalf of the Defendant(s). If this is not the case it should be preceded by the command |\clientpltrue|.

\cl This paragraph is included simply to bulk things out a little bit so that the affidavit extends over onto the next page.

\opinion I have settled the appropriate documents for the consideration of my Instructing Solicitors. I have no comments to make on them.

To change this Opinion into an Advice, simply change |\opinion| at the top of the file to |\advice|.
