When is the deadline for claimant's evidence in reply in an inheritance act claim?
The catalogue records a 14 days period from Service of the defendant's written evidence on the claimant. 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
- 14 days
- Trigger
- Service of the defendant's written evidence on the claimant
- 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.
- Extendable by agreement or by the court. CPR 57.16(2) applies rule 8.5 only as modified by paragraphs (3) to (5) of rule 57.16, and those paragraphs do not touch the reply period, so the 14 days survives unmodified.
- CPR 8.5(6) requires the copy to be served on the other parties within the same time limit. Practitioners diarise this because in a multi defendant Inheritance Act claim the 14 days runs separately from each defendant's evidence.
