JUDGMENT BY DEFAULT IN CASES OF LIQUIDATED DEMANDS AND CLAIMS FOR DELIVERY OF GOODS AND CHATTELS
1. Where the plaintiffs claim in a civil bill is for a debt, or liquidated demand, or for the delivery of specific goods or chattels, and a defendant has not entered an appearance within time limited in the civil bill, or, having entered an appearance, has not delivered a defence within the time limited by these Rules, the plaintiff may, in default of such appearance or defence, as the case may be, apply in the office for judgment to be entered against such defendant. In any such cases in which the defendant shall, after action brought, have satisfied the plaintiff’s claim (save as to costs), the plaintiff may apply in the office for judgment for the costs applicable to the plaintiff’s claim. The application for such judgment shall be supported by the documents mentioned in rules 2 and 3 of this Order with such alterations and additions thereto as may be appropriate and shall be in accordance with Forms 9 and 10 of the Schedule of Forms annexed hereto.
