Calculation basis and source
- Period
- 30 days
- Trigger
- The date of the formal offer to settle
- 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 offer may specify a longer period (r 4-26(3)(a)). A valid formal offer may not be withdrawn without the Court's permission, which is given only in special circumstances (r 4-26(4)).
- The offer also closes automatically at the start of the summary judgment hearing or trial, whichever applies (r 4-26(3)(b)).
