When is the deadline for amendment of defence following an amended statement of claim filed without leave?
The catalogue records a 14 days period from Service of the amended statement of claim on the defendant. 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
- 14 days
- Trigger
- Service of the amended statement of claim on the defendant
- 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.
- Outside the 14 days the defendant must seek leave to amend under UCPR Pt 19; time may also be extended under r 1.12. Not computed.
- Added on verification: the researched catalogue captured the plaintiff's 28 day right to amend under r 19.1(1) but omitted the defendant's answering 14 day right in r 19.1(2), which is the deadline that actually bites on a defendant. Rule text verified verbatim against the current consolidation of the UCPR on legislation.nsw.gov.au.
