When is the deadline for commencement of an action for judicial review?
The catalogue records a 6 months period from The decision, act or omission the subject of the action. 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
- 6 months
- Trigger
- The decision, act or omission the subject of the action
- 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 256.3(2): the applicant may institute out of time but must seek an extension of time and the action cannot proceed further without leave of the Court. See also Limitation of Actions Act 1936 (SA) s 48.
- Note the composite obligation: even within 6 months, the action must be commenced "as soon as practicable". The 6-month figure is a long-stop, not a safe harbour.
