Jurisdiction
A demand letter is a written reminder to your counterparty to fulfill an obligation under an engagement. It is often a payment reminder. For example, you might send a customer a reminder asking them to pay an outstanding invoice. In this reminder, a new payment term is given. A reminder also has the function of extending the statute of limitations. stumble.
In fact, there is no difference between the formal notice and the summons. The purpose of both documents is to induce the other party to fulfill its obligations and to warn of consequences, such as liability for collection costs. Nowadays, most courts require that payment is first demanded and the deadline to comply has passed before authorizing the laying of prejudgment attachment.
