How does this provision count time?

  1. File notice of appeal
  2. Supreme Court registrar appeal uses 5 days after decision. Exclude the triggering day. Rule 6350 omits closed Registry days for a period of five days or less and omits December 25 through January 1 from the relevant action period. A before-appointment interval excludes both the act day and appointment day under Legislation Act section 151.
  3. File notice of appeal. Apply the relevant Canberra completion-day rule in Legislation Act section 151A and Registry closures in rule 6300. This model refuses a closed backward completion endpoint instead of moving it beyond the required interval. Actual additional Registry closures must be retained.
  4. Rule 5014 permits further time before or after the original period, with the required affidavit; no automatic extension is inferred.
