When is the deadline for claim to recover possession of converted personal property - two years from knowledge of who holds it?
The catalogue records a 2 years period from Day on which the claimant first knew or ought reasonably to have known the identity of the person who has possession of the personal property. 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
- 2 years
- Trigger
- Day on which the claimant first knew or ought reasonably to have known the identity of the person who has possession of the personal property
- 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.
- NONE by judicial order. Section 16(a) removes reliance on the s 9(1)(b)(ii) longstop on wilful concealment. Never compute an extension.
- Added on verification: missing from the researched catalogue. THREE DIFFERENT TRIGGERS. Where the defendant is a good faith purchaser for value, s 9(1)(a) gives a flat two years from the DAY OF PURCHASE with no discovery element at all. Otherwise the earlier of the two-year knowledge period and the fifteen-year longstop in s 9(1)(b)(ii) applies. Section 9(2): on expiry the claimant's title to the personal property is extinguished. Section 10(2) carries the same bar across to a damages claim for conversion.
