An unspecified claim is a claim where the claimant wishes a judgment to be made on amount due.

• A. Specified claim
• B. Unspecified claim
• C. Admitted claim
• D. Counterclaim

Answer: (B)

The concept being tested is the distinction between liquidated (fixed) and unliquidated (to be decided) quantum in money claims. An unspecified claim means the claimant is asking the court to determine the amount due—the exact sum hasn’t been fixed at the outset, so the court will assess or quantify the quantum during the proceedings. If the amount were fixed and stated clearly in the claim form, it would be a specified claim. The other options don’t fit: an admitted claim is where liability is accepted but the amount may still be disputed, and a counterclaim is a separate claim brought by the defendant against the claimant. So, the description matches an unspecified (unliquidated) claim.
