Where the parties' contract created a running account and expressly made outstanding sums payable upon demand, the cause of action for the outstanding balance accrues upon a valid demand; therefore the magistrate was wrong to treat 31 December 2009 as the accrual date and the High Court correctly held the cause of action accrued on the solicitor's demand of 6 September 2018, rendering the claim within the limitation period and not amenable to summary striking out under Order 18 Rule 19.
