When is the deadline for limitation period: contribution between tort-feasors, 2 year limb?
The catalogue records a 2 years period from The date on which the cause of action for contribution first accrues to the plaintiff or to a person through whom the plaintiff claims. 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
- 2 years
- Trigger
- The date on which the cause of action for contribution first accrues to the plaintiff or to a person through whom the plaintiff claims
- 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.
- Limitation Act 1969 (NSW) Pt 3 postponement provisions. Not computed.
- Both limbs of s 26(1) must be calculated and the FIRST to expire governs. s 26(2) defines when the contribution cause of action first accrues, by reference to judgment in a civil action, arbitral award or agreement, and must be applied rather than assumed.
