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

such, where the case is for a fixed, specific, or determined sum or property.
A claim for a predestined amount of money owed for example a claim at the purchase price of
products sold and will qualify as a case for an obligation or liquidated demand. 1
The courts have additionally demonstrated that the obligation is liquidated where it is granted
or where the fiscal value is fit for being discovered expediently.
To be a liquidated demand, the interest must be set out-so that the sum might be determined
by simple mathematical calculations. diametrically, the joined summons is primarily
appropriated where the offended party's case is de-liquidated, that is, where it is not
