TLI4801 October/November (Exam) Memo | Due 28 October 2025. All
questions fully answered. (a) Will it be advisable to commence with a letter
of demand to commence with the legal action against the hotel and what are
the possible benefits for doing so? (6) (b) Mrs. Slipper instructs you to
proceed with a summons following the failure of the hotel to respond to the
letter of demand. Discuss whether Mrs. Slipper should use a provisional
sentence summons or a combined summons to institute her claim or action.
(4)
It is highly advisable to commence with a letter of demand (also known as a letter before
action or final notice) before initiating formal legal action against the hotel.
Benefits of Sending a Letter of Demand
A letter of demand serves several critical purposes and offers significant potential benefits that
can make it a strategic first step:
1. Encouraging Settlement and Avoiding Litigation 🤝
The primary benefit is that it can prompt the hotel to settle the dispute without the need for
expensive, time-consuming, and stressful court proceedings.
Cost-Effectiveness: Successfully resolving the matter at this stage avoids the substantial
legal fees, disbursements, and time required for formal litigation.
Speed: A negotiated settlement is typically much faster than waiting for a court date and
proceeding through the full litigation process.
Control over Outcome: Settlement allows you and the hotel to agree on the terms of
resolution (e.g., compensation amount, specific actions), which offers more control than
leaving the decision to a judge.
2. Demonstrating Good Faith and Compliance ⚖️
Sending the letter demonstrates to a potential court that you made a genuine effort to resolve the
matter amicably before resorting to litigation.
Procedural Requirement: In many jurisdictions, it is a practical, and sometimes a
mandatory, pre-litigation requirement under court rules or practice directions (e.g., Civil
Procedure Rules), which encourages parties to attempt Alternative Dispute Resolution
(ADR).
