- UCPR r 7(2) allows the court to shorten a time that has not ended.
- Applies to summary judgment for a plaintiff under r 292 and for a defendant under r 293. Neither r 292 nor r 293 imposes a deadline for making the application: a plaintiff may apply 'at any time after a defendant files a notice of intention to defend' and a defendant 'at any time after filing a notice of intention to defend'.
