Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 14 months
- Trigger
- Day the notice of action, or notice of action for debt, is filed
- 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.
- Rule 4.04(3): the motion may be made ex parte, unless a judge orders otherwise. Rule 4.04(6) governs once the fourteen months have run and requires the plaintiff to satisfy the judge on one of the two narrow grounds set out there.
- ADDED ON VERIFICATION. The fourteen-month figure gives a plaintiff two months of grace after the one-year expiry in r 4.04(1) in which to bring a renewal motion as of course; after that the much harder r 4.04(6) test applies. Expressed in months, so r 94.02(1) does not apply and the count is calendar months.
