When is the deadline for notice of constitutional question to the attorneys general?
The catalogue records a 10 days period from Day on which the constitutional question is to be argued. 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
- 10 days
- Trigger
- Day on which the constitutional question is to be argued
- 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 Court or tribunal may order otherwise (closing words of s 57(2)).
- Counts backward. "At least" engages Interpretation Act s 27(1), so 10 clear days must intervene. The consequence of non-compliance is substantive, not merely procedural: under s 57(1) an Act or regulation shall not be judged invalid, inapplicable or inoperable unless notice has been served on the Attorney General of Canada and the attorney general of each province. Notice must go to all fourteen Attorneys General. Confirmation that notice has been given is required in the requisition for hearing of an application (r 314(2)(a)) and in the requisition for hearing of an appeal (r 347(3)(a)); both cross-references were checked against the rule text on verification.
