When is the deadline for duration of a warrant for the arrest of an absconding defendant?

The catalogue records a 2 months period from The issue of the warrant. 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.

  • The court may issue the warrant at any time, including before service of the claim or before judgment (r 935(2)), and may fix an amount entitling the defendant to be released (r 935(4)-(5)).
  • Added on verification: mentioned only in a note in the researched catalogue. This is the absconding-defendant arrest warrant under ch 20 and is distinct from the 1 year enforcement warrant in r 820(1)(b) and r 908(1)(b). The warrant may state an earlier end date.
