When is the deadline for plaintiff's preliminary act in a collision proceeding?
The catalogue records a 7 days period from Commencement of the proceeding. This draft page remains free only until its source, worked example and limits are reviewed.
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
- 7 days
- Trigger
- Commencement of the proceeding
- 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.
- Unless the court otherwise orders (r 25(1)); where the Division applies by virtue of an order under r 24(2), the times are those specified by the court (r 25(3)); r 6A relief from rules.
- Division 4 of Part IV applies automatically to proceedings arising out of a collision between two or more ships (r 24(1)) and may be applied by order to proceedings for loss of a ship or damage done to or by a ship (r 24(2)). Sanction for default is severe: under r 27(1) the court may dismiss the proceeding if the plaintiff fails to comply with r 25. Preliminary acts are filed confidentially (r 26) and opened only on order or on close of pleadings (r 28).
