Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 14 days
- Trigger
- The last date on which lists of documents are due to be filed by operation of the Rules or 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.
- After this date, amendment requires consent or leave (r 69.2, r 69.3). The Court may also disallow an amendment made under r 69.1 (r 69.1(3)).
- A party may not amend under this rule if the amendment would add a cause of action that is statute barred or withdraw an admission (r 69.1(2)). 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.
