Deadline

60 days from Issuance of the statement of claim by the Registry

Federal Courts Rules, SOR/98-106, r 203(1)Binding

Proof of service must be filed within the time set by r 204 for the service and filing of a statement of defence (r 203(2)). Failure to serve within 60 days engages the delay and status review machinery (rr 167, 380(1)(a)) rather than automatic nullity. Confirmed on verification against rr 203 and 7(3) at laws-lois.justice.gc.ca.
