When is the deadline for court extension of an nmc interim order?
The catalogue records a 12 months period from Application by the Council before the interim order expires. 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
- 12 months
- Trigger
- Application by the Council before the interim order expires
- 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.
- Discretionary. The court 'may' extend for up to 12 months. Not automatic and not a guaranteed full 12 months. The court may also replace a conditions order with a suspension order or vice versa under art 31(9)(b) and (c).
- After a court extension, art 31(11)(a) resets the review clock to 6 months from the date the court extended or replaced the order. Unlike Medical Act s.41A(9), there is no shortened 3-month branch. The registrant may separately apply to the court under art 31(12) to terminate or vary, and that decision is final.
