Part II · Pleadings and Summons

13. Replication

Official English translation. Where it differs from the Sinhala or Tamil text, the Act itself says which text prevails.

(1)

When there is a claim in reconvention, a replication may be permitted to be filed in the Registry together with an affidavit or affidavits and documents, if any, and the rules relating to a written answer shall apply to a replication by the plaintiff.

(2)

If the plaintiff admits the claim in reconvention, the

Small Claims Court shall record such admission on record and require the plaintiff to sign the same. The Small Claims

Court may enter judgment against the plaintiff in respect of such claim in reconvention according to the admission so made. Such admission shall be in writing, signed by the plaintiff and his signature attested by an attorney-at-law.
