When is the deadline for updated affidavit of personal injury particulars?
The catalogue records a 28 days period from Receipt of a respondent's request (only if at least 6 months have elapsed since the most recent statement), or the applicant becoming aware that a previous statement was or has become inaccurate in a material respect. This draft page remains free only until its source, worked example and limits are reviewed.
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
- 28 days
- Trigger
- Receipt of a respondent's request (only if at least 6 months have elapsed since the most recent statement), or the applicant becoming aware that a previous statement was or has become inaccurate in a material respect

- "Unless the Court otherwise orders"; r 12.1(2)(c). Limb (c) is whatever the Court orders.
- Added on verification: the researcher mentioned r 66.1(4) only inside a note to the initial affidavit entry. It is a recurring, self-executing obligation on a personal injury applicant and belongs in the catalogue in its own right. An updated affidavit need only contain information that needs to be amended or updated since the previous statement (r 66.1(6)).
