When is the deadline for listing a defendant's application for discharge on expiry of a time limit?

The catalogue records a 2 days period from Service of the written application for discharge. 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
2 days
Trigger
Service of the written application for discharge
Counting

This route remains in preparation until a pinpoint official source is recorded.

  • Qualified by 'Unless the court otherwise directs'. This is a listing obligation on the court officer rather than a party deadline, so no sanction attaches to the defendant.
  • This rule is the practical gateway to every mandatory-discharge provision in the Act, and rule 50.16(1)(d) is a useful consolidated checklist of the operative time limits: 48 hours (s.6), 45 days (s.74), 21 days (s.37), 10 days (s.46), 10 days (ss.35, 36, 47), 28 days (ss.117, 118), 21 days (s.180), 21 days (s.181).
