When is the deadline for notice to a witness to attend and give evidence at trial?
The catalogue records a 20 days period from Trial date. 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
- 20 days
- Trigger
- Trial date
- Counting
