Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 12 years
- Trigger
- The date on which the judgment first becomes enforceable
- 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 1981 (NT) s 44, on the s 44(3)(b) gateways.
- Runs from when the judgment first becomes ENFORCEABLE, not from when it was given. For a judgment of a court outside the Territory (other than a Commonwealth court), s 15(2) fixes the date as when the judgment first becomes enforceable in the place where it was given. Distinguish the shorter 6-year threshold in SCR r 68.02(1)(a) after which leave is needed to issue a warrant of execution.
