The bending map of a hyperbolic 3 -manifold maps a convex cocompact hyperbolic metric on a 3 -manifold with boundary to its bending measured geodesic lamination. As proved in [KeS] and [KaT], this map is continuous. In the present paper we study the extension of this map to the space of geometrically finite hyperbolic metrics. We introduce a relationship on the space of measured geodesic laminations and show that the quotient map obtained from the bending map is continuous.
