Deadlines and the calendar

Where deadlines come from

Deadlines are proposed when a document implies one, such as served discovery or a court order, and when a case event starts a clock, such as the date of loss. Each proposal shows the rule it was counted from, or the line in the document it relies on.

Counting

• Day one is the day after service.
• Deadlines your firm owes roll back off weekends and court holidays; deadlines the other side owes roll forward.
• Without a rule or a quoted source, no date is proposed. You get a task to set it yourself.

Confirm and publish

1. Open Deadlines and review proposed items.
2. Confirm, change or dismiss each one.
3. Confirmed deadlines publish to your connected Google Calendar and to the firm's ICS feed.

If a date looks wrong

Change it and add a note. The original proposal, your change and the reason are kept in the audit log. Always verify court deadlines against the order and the rules; you remain responsible for your calendar.
