When is the deadline for minimum notice of hearing for a summoned or cited witness?
The catalogue records a 7 days period from Date of the hearing at which the witness is required to attend (count backwards). 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
- 7 days
- Trigger
- Date of the hearing at which the witness is required to attend (count backwards)
- 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.
- None expressed in rule 22. The seven days is a precondition of compellability, not a case-management target: short-serve the summons and the witness simply cannot be required to attend. Conduct money under rule 22(3)(b) must also be offered or paid.
- Rule 22(4) allows the Tribunal to make the summoning of a witness conditional. The equivalent provision for section 47A claims is rule 56, in materially identical terms.
