Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 14 days
- Trigger
- the day of service of the writ of mandamus
- 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.
- Expressly subject to contrary order of the Court or a Justice. General enlargement power under r 4.02.
- Rule 25.13.5 requires the person to whom the writ is addressed to file and serve, within the time allowed by the writ, an affidavit stating either that the act commanded has been done or the reason why it has not. Rule 25.13.6 permits a peremptory writ if the act is not done. A writ of habeas corpus operates similarly under r 25.16.4, but its return time is fixed by the writ itself rather than by a default rule period.
