Order 81 r.1 is a procedural rule applicable to claims begun by originating summons and extends to orders under section 221; therefore an order made in the name of a firm under s221 is valid and enforceable. Whether enforcement should proceed by orders against the partnership or against individual partners depends on whether service and obligations under RHC O.45 r.7(2)(a) were complied with and on partnership liability rules. Costs consequences flow from who was properly and reasonably joined.
