R3014 - Statements.

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.
