When is the deadline for defence after an order giving leave to defend on a summary judgment summons?
The catalogue records a 14 days period from Making of the order on the Order 14 or Order 86 summons giving the defendant leave to defend. 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
- 14 days
- Trigger
- Making of the order on the Order 14 or Order 86 summons giving the defendant leave to defend
- 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.
- Service of an Order 14 or Order 86 summons suspends the ordinary defence deadline entirely. If leave to defend is refused there is no defence deadline; if granted, the clock restarts at 14 days from the making of the order (the date the order is made, not the date it is filed under O.42 r.5). A period specified in the order overrides.
