When is the deadline for supreme court - file papers for the trial judge after close of pleadings?
The catalogue records a 14 days period from Close of pleadings, computed under r 14.08. 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
- 14 days
- Trigger
- Close of pleadings, computed under r 14.08
- 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.
- SCR r 3.02.
- Added on verification: a plaintiff-side step in Order 48 Part 3 (Setting down for trial) omitted by the researcher, which runs from the same computed close-of-pleadings event as the r 29.03(2) discovery obligation and therefore falls due a week before it. Filing at the Registry, so r 3.01(5) applies; SCR r 3.04(1) excludes 24 December to 9 January. Verified against the Supreme Court Rules 1987 (NT) as in force at 23 June 2025 (legislation.nt.gov.au).
