When is the deadline for objection to a notice to admit the substance of a witness's evidence?
The catalogue records a 7 days period from Service of the notice under r 154.14(1). 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
- 7 days
- Trigger
- Service of the notice under r 154.14(1)
- 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.
- r 12.1(2)(c).
- Added on verification: the researcher encoded the proponent's 14-day notice under r 154.14(1) but left the responding party's 7-day objection window in a note. Failure to object within 7 days produces a deemed admission of the content of the notice, a substantive loss on the eve of trial, so it belongs in the catalogue in its own right. Note the objection must incorporate detailed reasons; a bare objection does not stop the deeming.
