When is the deadline for service of a subpoena to give evidence on a special witness?
The catalogue records a 6 weeks period from the date set by the court for the hearing of the proceeding (counting backwards). This draft page remains free only until its source, worked example and limits are reviewed.
Source link required
This page is in preparation. It does not offer an automated deadline or a paid record until the missing source or calculator evidence is complete.
In preparation
The existing catalogue does not yet have a registered adapter or source evidence for this exact question. It remains available as a public preparation page only.
Example pending review
A separately reviewed fixture is required before this question can become indexable. The page does not present an unreviewed output as an example.
Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 6 weeks
- Trigger
- the date set by the court for the hearing of the proceeding (counting backwards)
- Counting
- The encoded calculator method must be independently documented before publication.
- Rollovers and holidays
- Holiday, closure and order treatment must be independently documented before publication.
This route remains in preparation until a pinpoint official source is recorded.
- Rule 6482 (3): the court may give leave for later service, on an affidavit stating the matters in r 6482 (5); if leave is given the court must set a date for the last date of service (r 6482 (7)). Rule 6482 (8) allows leave where a special witness given a notice under r 6483 fails to attend.
- Added on verification: the researched catalogue mentioned this period only in a passing note on r 6602 and did not catalogue it. At 6 weeks it is far longer than the ordinary subpoena period and it governs medical and other special witnesses.
