Court Procedures Rules 2006 (ACT) r 663 (1) [R73, effective August 1, 2026]How does this provision count time?
- Apply to amend or set aside the notice
- Setting aside non-party production uses 14 days after service on the respondent. 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.
- Apply to amend or set aside the notice. 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.
- The court may extend or shorten the procedural period under rule 6351. The actual order replaces this ordinary source model.
