When is the deadline for requisition for hearing of an appeal?
The catalogue records a 20 days period from Service of the respondent's memorandum of fact and law, or expiry of the time for service of it, whichever is earlier. 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
- Service of the respondent's memorandum of fact and law, or expiry of the time for service of it, whichever is earlier
- 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.
- Extendable on motion under r 8; extendable once by consent under r 7 by not more than 10 days.
- If the appellant fails to comply, the respondent may file the requisition instead of moving to dismiss for delay under r 167 (r 347(2)). Failure to file the requisition is what exposes an appeal to status review under r 382.2 once 180 days have elapsed since issuance of the notice of appeal. The requisition must state that rr 346(1) and (5) have been complied with and that any notice required under Federal Courts Act s 57 has been given (r 347(3)(a)).
