When is the deadline for supreme court - enter cause, matter or issue for trial after a direction to do so?
The catalogue records a 4 weeks period from The day on which the direction under O 33 r 1(b) is given. 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
- 4 weeks
- Trigger
- The day on which the direction under O 33 r 1(b) is given
- 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.
- The direction itself may specify a different time. O 3 r 5 general extension power.
- Added on verification: the researched catalogue encoded the District Court's 120-day entry-for-trial deadline (DCR 2005 r 37(1)) but omitted the Supreme Court's equivalent. The consequences are serious: once the entry period ends, another party may enter the matter for trial (O 33 r 2(1A)) and, where the defaulting party is the plaintiff, any party may apply to dismiss the claim for want of prosecution (O 33 r 2(1B)). Note that DCR 2005 r 29 disapplies RSC Order 33 in the District Court, so this entry is Supreme Court only.
