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
- 21 days
- Trigger
- Service of the filed petition on the petition respondent
- 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.
- Court may otherwise order; general power under r 22-4(2); extension by consent under r 22-4(3).
- Mirrors the r 3-3(3) tiers: 35 days if served in the USA (r 16-1(4)(c)(ii)) and 49 days if served elsewhere (r 16-1(4)(c)(iii)). Note the unusual sanction - the consequence of not responding is loss of notice of the hearing date, not default judgment. Note also the service count: TWO copies on the petitioner, one on every other party of record.
