When is the deadline for pipa: starting a court proceeding after the compulsory conference?
The catalogue records a 60 days period from The conclusion of the compulsory conference. 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
- 60 days
- Trigger
- The conclusion of the compulsory conference
- 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.
- The parties may agree a further period, or the court may fix one, but ONLY on an agreement or application made within the original 60 days (s 42(1)(b)). Expiry does not prevent the claimant starting the proceeding, but the court may order the claimant to pay a respondent's costs arising out of the delay unless a reasonable excuse is established, and may on a respondent's application fix a time limit (s 42(4)).
- Encoded as non-binding because the section says a proceeding 'should' be started, and s 42(4) preserves the right to start late. It nonetheless carries real costs consequences and must be surfaced. Where the compulsory conference is dispensed with, the 60 days runs from the later of the s 42(2)(a)(i) date and the date of the agreement or order dispensing with it.
