Complaint for Amount Due for Work and Labor Done on Open Account Basis - Breach of Oral or Implied Contracts

An action to recover on an open account is one usually based on an implied or oral contract. Ordinarily, it is not necessary to specify all the individual items that make up the account balance due. Some jurisdictions authorize a short form of pleading that allows a copy of the written statement to be attached, specifying only that a certain sum is due the plaintiff from the defendant. This form is a generic example that may be referred to when preparing such a form for your particular state. It is for illustrative purposes only. Local laws should be consulted to determine any specific requirements for such a form in a particular jurisdiction.
