When is the deadline for response to a motion to be heard by the court?
The catalogue records a 10 days period from Service of the motion. 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
- Service of the motion
- 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 6(1) extension or abridgment.
- Applies where the Act or the Rules require the motion to be heard by the Court rather than a judge or the Registrar. After the response is filed, or at the end of this 10-day period, the Registrar sends a Form 69 notice of hearing (r 54(4)). July excluded (r 5(3)); recess excluded (r 5.1). Displaced for a motion for re-hearing of an appeal, where r 76(2) substitutes 15 days "[n]otwithstanding the time referred to in subrule 54(1)".
