§ 10-66. Amendments--Amendment of Amount in Demand

 

A party may amend the party's statement concerning the amount in demand by order of the judicial authority upon filing of a motion for leave to file such amendment, with a copy of the amendment appended, after service upon each party as provided by Sections 10-12 through 10-17, and with proof of service endorsed thereon. After obtaining permission of the judicial authority, the moving party shall file the original amendment with the clerk. If the amount, legal interest or property in demand was alleged to be less than $2500 in accordance with the provisions of Section 10-20, or, prior to October 1, 1979, was alleged to be less than $7500, and the party has been given permission by a judicial authority to amend the demand to an amount in excess of either amount, the party shall pay any entry fee prescribed by statute to the clerk when the amendment is filed.
