Tribunal Procedure (Upper Tribunal) (Lands Chamber) Rules 2010, rr.21(1)–(7), 12How does this provision count time?
- Exclude the qualifying notice-sending date and count 14 calendar days. Rule 12 permits the act on the next working day at a closed endpoint and requires completion by 5PM, unlike the First-tier rule’s before-5PM wording.
- Provide the signed and dated application, required copies, documents and payable fee to the Upper Tribunal Lands Chamber
- The Lands Chamber must receive the ordinary renewed permission application by 5PM under rule 12. This inclusive clock boundary differs from the First-tier Tribunal’s before-5PM requirement. No December vacation exclusion is imported; unresolved regional holidays prevent a completion date.
