Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 28 days
- Trigger
- The last date on which lists of documents are due to be filed by operation of the Rules or an order of the Court
- 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 otherwise orders"; r 12.1(2)(c). Prior leave of the Court is in any event required to administer interrogatories (r 117.5(1)).
- Added on verification: the researcher encoded the parallel notice to admit long-stop in r 117.1(2) but relegated the interrogatories long-stop to a note. The trigger date is itself derived: under r 73.7(4) lists of documents are due 28 days after the close of pleadings unless the Court orders otherwise.
