departure

departure
A deviation or divergence, from a standard rule, measurement or course of conduct. A variance between pleading and proof. Kintner v. U. S., C.C.A.Colo., 71 F.2d 961, 962.
In common law pleading, the statement of matter in a replication, rejoinder, or subsequent pleading, as a cause of action or defense, which is not pursuant to the previous pleading of the same party, and which does not support and fortify it. Under Rules of Civil Procedure, no provision is made for "departure" but there are liberal amendment provisions. Fed.R. Civil P. 15.
