When is the deadline for negligence actions where facts are not known at the date of accrual (latent damage)?
The catalogue records a 36 months period from Date on which the cause of action accrued, or the starting date defined by Article 11(4). 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
- 36 months
- Trigger
- Date on which the cause of action accrued, or the starting date defined by Article 11(4)
- 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.
- Applies to negligence actions other than personal injury claims under Article 7. The 'starting date' is the earliest date on which the plaintiff had both the requisite knowledge and a right to bring the action (Article 11(4)). Subject to the fifteen year long stop in Article 12.
