When is the deadline for transitional (2009 rules): statement of facts and issues?
The catalogue records a 42 days period from the receipt by the Registrar of the record of the proceedings below. 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.

- 2009 r 5(1): Registrar may extend or shorten, including after expiry.
- Completely restructured by the 2024 Rules: 2024 r 28(1) allows 20 weeks and runs from the Registrar's ready-to-list notification rather than from the filing of the notice of appeal or notice to proceed. Corrected on verification: the trigger was wrong. Paragraph 6 of the Schedule to the Judicial Committee (Appellate Jurisdiction) Rules (Amendment) Order 2013 (SI 2013/246), Schedule provides that 'Rule 21(1) (time limit for filing statement of facts and issues) shall be amended by substituting, for the words from "Within" to "notice of appeal", the words "Within 42 days after the receipt by the Registrar of the record"', in force 1 April 2013. The 42 days therefore run from the Registrar's receipt of the record, not from the filing of the notice of intention to proceed or the notice of appeal. The explanatory note to SI 2013/246 confirms the amendment 'amends the time limit by which the statement of facts and issues is to be filed so that the time limit runs from the receipt by the Registrar of the record'. ENGINEERING TRAP: legislation.gov.uk serves the Schedule to SI 2009/224 only in its 'as made' form and does not display the 2013 amendments, so the unamended text reads as if it were current. The amending text must be read from SI 2013/246 itself.
