"As everybody who has anything to do with the law well knows, the path of the law is strewn with examples of open and shut cases which, somehow, were not; of
unanswerable charges which, in the event, were completely answered; of inexplicable conduct which was fully explained; of fixed and unalterable determinations that, by discussion, suffered a change."

These rules may be cited as the Supreme Court Rules 2007 and shall come into effect on 1 January 2007.

Subject to rules 2 and 3 these rules shall apply to all civil proceedings in the Court except in so far as they may be inconsistent with any statutory provisions.

These rules shall apply to divorce and related proceedings only in so far as there is no provision in the Divorce Rules.

Where there is no provision in these rules the rules of procedure under the former Rules of Supreme Court (RSC) in England (the "White Book") shall continue to apply notwithstanding the substantial and ongoing replacement of those rules by the Civil Procedure Rules 1998 (CPR).

If it appears in any given situation that no appropriate provision exists either in these rules or the English Rules referred to in rule 3, then the procedure to be followed shall be that prescribed by the Judge and in exercising any powers under this rule the Judge may be guided by any provision in the English Civil Procedure Rules 1998 (CPR).

In the event of any difference in meaning between the English text and the Tongan text of these rules, the meaning of the English text shall prevail.

The Chief Justice many from time to time delegate to the Registrar such functions and duties under these rules as the Chief Justice deems appropriate.

"application" means an application under Order 13 to the Court for a Court order whether in the course of an existing proceeding or as an originating application;

"application notice" means a document in Form 6 by which an applicant applies under Order 13 rule 1 to seek a Court order;

"document" includes a pleading and includes any document filed in connection with an application;

"incapacitated person" means a person suffering from a mental disorder or mental illness under the Mental Health Act 2000 to such an extent as to be incapable of managing his or her property and affairs;

"lawyer" means a law practitioner enrolled and holding a valid practising certificate under the Law Practitioners Act 1989;

"party" means any person who is a party to the proceeding referred to and includes a plaintiff, defendant, and third or subsequent party;

"person" includes any individual, a body of persons capable of suing and being sued, and a body corporate;

"pleading" includes a statement of claim, a statement of defence, a reply and a counterclaim;

"proceeding(s)" includes any action, application or other legal matter involving the exercise of the civil jurisdiction of the Court;

"Registrar" means the Chief Registrar or Registrar of the Supreme Court and includes any grade of Registrar;

"service officer" means a police Court officer, a bailiff, or an officer of the Court authorised to effect service of documents;

(a) that failure shall be treated as an irregularity and shall not nullify the proceedings or any judgment or order made therein;

(b) the Court may, on such terms as it thinks fit, set aside either wholly or in part any order made in the proceedings in which the irregularity occurred.

An application to set aside for irregularity shall not be allowed unless it is made within a reasonable time and before the party applying has taken any fresh step after becoming aware of the irregularity.

An application notice under rule 2 shall state the order sought and the concise grounds therefore.

The Court may, on such terms as it thinks just, order that the time within which a person is required to or authorised to do any act in any proceedings, whether before or after judgment, be extended or abridged.

If an extension or abridgement of time is likely to be non-contentious then the Court may act on a memorandum from counsel or a request in writing made through the Registrar but in all other cases a request under this Order must be made by application notice.

The time within which any person is required by the rules, or by any order of the Court, to serve, file, or amend any pleading may be extended or abridged by consent given in writing without an order of the Court.

Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, when the time for doing any act expires on a day when the Court office is closed, the act shall be done in time if done on the next day on which that office is open.

(1) An action shall be commenced by the filing of a writ of summons in Form 1 with a statement of claim attached in Form 2.

(2) As many copies of the writ and statement of claim are to be filed as there are parties to be served.

A writ shall state whether or not the plaintiff requires the action to be tried by a jury.

(1) Where the plaintiff sues by a lawyer, the statement of claim shall be endorsed with that lawyer’s name and an address for service which will be that of a lawyer within the Kingdom.

(2) Where the plaintiff sues in person, the statement of claim shall be endorsed with that person’s name and an address for service within the Kingdom.

(3) The address for service is to include any telephone and facsimile numbers along with any e-mail address.

(1) Subject to paragraph (2), a writ shall become invalid unless served on every defendant within 12 months from the date on which it was issued.

(2) Where for good reason a writ has not been served on a defendant in accordance with paragraph (1) the Court may from time to time by order extend its validity for any period not exceeding 12 months; and such order must be served along with the writ.

Subject to the provisions of this order, a party who takes any step in an action shall be deemed to have submitted to the jurisdiction of the Court.

A defendant who wishes to dispute the jurisdiction of the Court in an action may, within the time limited for service of a defence and before taking any other step in the action, apply to the Court for:

(d) the discharge of any order extending the validity of the writ for the purpose of service;

(e) an order to preserve or release any property seized or threatened with seizure in the action;

(f) a declaration that the Court has no jurisdiction in respect of the subject matter of the claim or the relief sought in the action; or

An application notice under rule 2 shall state the relief sought and the concise grounds therefore, supported by an affidavit setting out the facts on which the application is based.

The application notice and a copy of the affidavit in support shall be served on the plaintiff not less than 7 clear days before the hearing date.

A defendant who makes an application under rule 2 shall not be treated as having submitted to the jurisdiction of the Court by reason of having taken a step in the action.

If the Court makes no order on the application or dismisses it, the time for service of the defence shall run from the date of such order.

(1) All documents presented for filing in a proceeding shall bear the Case Number, the proper heading of the proceeding and a description of the document.

(2) The heading of every statement of claim and of every counterclaim shall, where the relief claimed relates to a statute or an estate, show the Short Title of the Act or the name of the estate.

(a) the full name and the place of residence and occupation of every plaintiff and defendant, so far as they are known to the party presenting the document for filing;

(b) the material facts upon which the plaintiff relies giving such particulars of time, place, amounts, names of persons, nature and dates of instruments, and other circumstances as may suffice to inform the Court and the party or parties against whom relief is sought of the plaintiff’s cause of action;

(1) A defendant who wishes to defend a claim shall, within 28 days of service of the writ, file a defence with as many copies as there are persons to be served.

(2) A defence shall state concisely the grounds of defence on which the defendant intends to rely, and whether the defendant requires the case to be tried by a jury.

(3) Subject to paragraph 4, a defendant shall be deemed to admit every material allegation of fact in the statement of claim which is not specifically denied.

(4) A defendant shall be deemed to deny any allegation that a party has suffered damage, and the alleged amount of such damage, unless specifically admitted.

(5) A defence of tender before action may not be pleaded unless and until the defendant has paid into Court (in accordance with Order 23) the amount alleged to have been tendered.

(1) A defendant in any action who claims to be entitled to any relief against a plaintiff in the action (whenever and however arising) may, instead of bringing a separate action, make a counterclaim in respect of that matter by adding the counterclaim to the statement of defence.

(2) A plaintiff who wishes to defend a counterclaim shall, within 28 days after service of the counterclaim, file a defence to the counterclaim, which may be incorporated with a reply to the defence.

(3) These rules shall apply to a counterclaim as if the counterclaim were a separate action in which the person making the counterclaim were plaintiff and the person against whom it is made were defendant.

(4) A counterclaim may be proceeded with notwithstanding that judgment is given for the plaintiff in the action, or that the action is stayed, discontinued, or dismissed.

(5) Where a defendant proves a counterclaim against the plaintiff’s claim and there is a balance in favour of one party, the Court may give judgment for the balance.

(a) claims against another defendant who is already a party to the action any contribution or indemnity or any relief or remedy relating to or connected to the original subject matter of the action; or

(b) requires that any question or issue relating to the original subject matter of the action should be determined not only as between the plaintiff and the defendant but also between either or both of them and another defendant;

then the defendant may, without leave, issue and serve on that other defendant a notice in Form 3.

(2) The notice to the other defendant shall contain a statement of the nature and grounds of the claim or, as the case may be, of the question or issue required to be determined.

(1) A party on whom a pleading is served may request the party whose pleading it is to give particulars of any allegation or other matter pleaded, and if that party fails to give such particulars within a reasonable time, the Court may on application order that such particulars be given.

(2) Where particulars are given, whether pursuant to a request or order of the Court, they shall be filed and served as a formal document and not in the form of a letter.

(3) The request or order shall be incorporated with the particulars, with each item of the particulars following immediately after the corresponding item of request or order.

(4) An order under this rule shall not be made before service of the defence unless, in the opinion of the Court, the order is necessary or desirable to enable the defendant to plead or for some other special reason.

(1) A party may, without leave of the Court, amend any pleading once only at any time before the pleadings are deemed to be closed.

(2) A party may not without leave of the Court amend any pleadings after pleadings are deemed to be closed.

(3) An Application for leave to amend a pleading shall be made by application notice which shall have attached a copy of the proposed amendment.

(4) Upon any amendment or application to amend, the original format shall be retained and the amendment shall be in red or underlined in red. If the amendment is a deletion, the passage to be deleted shall be marked through with a single red line. If a passage is to be substituted or added, it shall be inserted at the appropriate place in red or underlined in red.

(5) Where it is necessary, as the result of an amendment, to amend the statement of defence or reply, the pleading shall be amended as described in paragraph (4).

(6) In any case where further amendment is necessary, such further amendments shall be in green, then blue, then yellow.

(7) If the Court grants leave to amend any pleading it may make such order as to costs and as to the further conduct of the action as it thinks just.

(8) A copy of every amended pleading shall be filed and served on all parties to the action.

(1) The Court may at any time order that any pleading or part thereof be struck out if:

(a) it discloses no reasonable cause of action or defence, as the case may be; or

and may order the action to be stayed or dismissed, or judgment to be entered accordingly.

(3) Subject to paragraph 4, the Court may, of its own motion, strike out an action:

(b) the case has not been set down for trial within two years after service of the writ; or

(c) the action has been adjourned sine die and no step has been taken in the action within two years from the date when it was so adjourned.

(4) No action shall be struck out under this rule unless the parties have been given not less than 28 days notice of the Court’s intention to do so.

whether or not any request or order for particulars has been made but not yet complied with at that time.

No claim shall be defeated by reason of the misjoinder or non-joinder of any party.

Subject to Rules 4 and 5, the Court may at any stage in the proceedings, of its own motion or on application, and on such terms as it thinks just:

(a) order any person who is not a proper or necessary party to be dismissed from the action;

(b) order any person to be added as a party if that person ought to have been joined as a party or if the person’s presence is necessary or convenient to ensure that all related matters are finally determined.

An application to add or to dismiss a party shall be made by application notice supported by an affidavit showing the grounds for such application.

Unless the Court otherwise orders, no person shall be added or substituted as a party after the expiry of any relevant period of limitation.

(1) Where a person against whom an action has been brought has died, the action shall be treated as if it were brought against the deceased’s estate.

(2) Where a person against whom an action would have lain has died but the cause of action survives, the action may be brought against the deceased’s estate.

(3) Where paragraphs (1) or (2) apply, and no grant of probate or administration has been made, the plaintiff shall apply to the Court for some person to be appointed to represent the estate.

(4) An application under paragraph (3) shall be made by application notice supported by an affidavit both of which shall be served on the person proposed to be appointed.

(1) An incapacitated person or a minor may commence and prosecute proceedings by a next friend and may defend proceedings by a guardian ad litem.

(2) No step shall be taken in any proceedings by an incapacitated person or a minor until the next friend or guardian ad litem (as the case may be) has filed with the Court a written consent to act by the proposed next friend or guardian ad litem together with a certificate by a lawyer representing the incapacitated person or minor certifying that:

(a) the person to whom the certificate relates is an incapacitated person or minor (as the case may be), and stating the grounds for such knowledge or belief, and

(b) that the person named in the certificate as next friend or guardian ad litem has no interest in the action in question adverse to that of the incapacitated person or minor, and is a proper person to be next friend or guardian ad litem.

(3) Where a pleading has been served on a party who appears to be an incapacitated person or a minor, the party at whose instance the document was served shall, before taking any further step in the proceedings, make application to the Court by application notice for directions as to whether a guardian ad litem should be appointed to act for that person.

(4) If on the hearing of an application under paragraph (3), the Court considers it necessary to protect the interests of the person served, it shall order some proper person to be appointed guardian ad litem.

In all proceedings the number of persons named or joined as parties shall be limited as far as is practicable to those whose presence before the Court is necessary for a due and just determination of the issue or issues arising out of the proceeding or whom it is thought to bind by any judgment given therein.

(b) claims against such person relief which is substantially the same as that claimed by the plaintiff; or

Application for leave to issue a third party notice shall be made by application notice supported by an affidavit:

(b) unless filed in connection with an ex parte application, shall be served on every other party as provided for in these rules.

"Placed in correspondence rack number ......... at .......... AM/PM on (insert date)"

(2) The Court clerk shall initial the notation and thereafter such endorsement shall be evidence of due service.

(1) If it appears to the Court that it is impracticable to serve any document in accordance with rule 3, it may grant leave to substitute some other form of service which appears likely to bring that document to the notice of the person to be served.

(2) If it appears to the Court that it is impracticable to serve any party in accordance with rule 3, or it is otherwise necessary or expedient to dispense with service of any document on that party, the Court may make an order dispensing with such service.

(3) Application for an order under this rule shall be made ex parte supported by an affidavit showing what steps have already been taken to effect service and stating the grounds of the application. The applicant may be required to attend on the application.

(4) Application for an order for substituted service on a person domiciled outside the jurisdiction may be made only after leave has been granted under Order 12, rule 1 allowing for service on the person out of the jurisdiction.

(2) The Court may deal with an application without a hearing in the circumstances provided for by rule 4.

(b) the application only affects the party applying, or is in respect of a matter of routine;

(e) the Court considers it appropriate in the interests of justice to dispense with a hearing.

(2) Unless the Court otherwise directs, an application under this rule shall be treated as an ex parte application and it shall not be necessary to serve the application notice on the respondent.

(1) If the application requires a hearing and it relates to an existing proceeding then, as soon as practicable after the filing of the application or, in the case of an ex parte application, after the issuance of a Court order directing the application to be heard, the applicant shall serve a copy of the application notice and supporting documentation (including the Court order if applicable) on each respondent.

(2) After the filing by the applicant of the certificate(s) of service, the Court shall convene a directions hearing to determine the future conduct of the application.
