Rule 3014. Statements. Every pleading shall consist of plain and
concise statements in consecutively numbered paragraphs. Each paragraph
shall contain, as far as practicable, a single allegation. Reference to
and incorporation of allegations may subsequently be by number. Prior
statements in a pleading shall be deemed repeated or adopted
subsequently in the same pleading whenever express repetition or
adoption is unnecessary for a clear presentation of the subsequent
matters. Separate causes of action or defenses shall be separately
stated and numbered and may be stated regardless of consistency. Causes
of action or defenses may be stated alternatively or hypothetically. A
copy of any writing which is attached to a pleading is a part thereof
for all purposes.
