When is the deadline for service of statement raising a special defence in an equity suit?
The catalogue records a 28 days period from Service of the defendant's notice of intention to defend. 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
- 28 days
- Trigger
- Service of the defendant's notice of intention to defend
- Counting

- Words substituted by SR 1995/151 with effect from 1 September 1995. Quote truncated where the consolidated text runs on. The same 28 day period from the notice of intention to defend governs notices of justification (rule 3), payment into court (rule 4(2)) and set-off or counterclaim (rule 5).
