PLEA gratefully acknowledges our primary core funder the Law Foundation of Saskatchewan for their continuing and generous support of our organization.
If you have been served with a Statement of Claim you can respond with a Statement of Defence. If you need more time to respond you can use a Notice of Intent to Defend. If you do not want to respond but still want to be notified when things happen in your case you can use a Demand for Notice. If you do not respond at all you can be noted for default and a judgment entered against you.
There are some specific situations where you can ask the court to strike out the Claim. The court can make an order to strike out a Claim that does not show a valid cause for a lawsuit or a Claim that does not comply with the Rules. There are other situations as well. Part 3 of The King's Bench Rules of Court (Rule 3-13) outlines these situations.
The Regina Public Library and Saskatoon Public Library are hosting free Law Fair events during Saskatchewan Access to Justice Week to connect people with free legal information, assistance, and support. Attend to acquire legal knowledge and to broaden awareness of legal rights and responsibilities!
