When is the deadline for acknowledgement of service of writ served within the jurisdiction?
The catalogue records a 14 days period from Service of the writ (the day of service counts). 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 writ (the day of service counts)
- 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.
- Engine-critical deviation: the words "(including the day of service)" override the general rule in O. 3, r. 2(2) that the first day is excluded. Day 1 is the day of service, so the period expires 13 days after service, not 14. Because the period exceeds 7 days, O. 3, r. 2(5) does not strip weekends or holidays, but O. 3, r. 4 rollover still applies.
