When is the deadline for intervener's factum where intervention granted by order?
The catalogue records a 6 weeks period from The making of the order granting the intervention. 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
- 6 weeks
- Trigger
- The making of the order granting the intervention
- 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 order granting intervention may itself specify a different period ("unless otherwise specified in that order"); otherwise r 6(1) extension or abridgment. Note r 5(4): where the period comes from the order rather than the Rules, holidays and July ARE included.
- Applies to a person granted leave to intervene under r 59. Weeks computed under r 5(1.1). July counted (r 5(3) carve-out for rr 35 to 37 factums); recess excluded (r 5.1) - but if the judge fixes a different date in the order, r 5(4) means holidays and July are all counted. A r 71(3) sanction applies: an intervener who files late shall not present oral argument unless a judge otherwise orders.
