When is the deadline for local court - serve third party notice?
The catalogue records a 28 days period from The day the defendant serves a notice of defence on the plaintiff under Part 8. 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
- 28 days
- Trigger
- The day the defendant serves a notice of defence on the plaintiff under Part 8
- 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 orders otherwise"; Local Court (Civil Jurisdiction) Rules 1998 r 3.03.
- Must be served PERSONALLY. Runs from actual service of the defence, not from the last day for serving it - the opposite of the Supreme Court trigger in SCR r 11.05(2)(a).
