Will someone please help me count the days?
The Applicant must serve and file their Brief not less than 7 days before a Case Conference.
The Respondent must serve and file their Brief not less than 4 days before.
COUNTING DAYS
<!-- TRANSIT - HYPERLINK --><!-- .tribunaux judiciaires (Loi sur les) - Règl. de l'Ont. 114/99. -->3. <!-- TRANSIT - HYPERLINK --><!-- .tribunaux judiciaires (Loi sur les) - Règl. de l'Ont. 114/99. -->(1) In these rules or an order, the number of days between two events is counted as follows:
1. The first day is the day after the first event.
2. The last day is the day of the second event. O. Reg. 114/99, r. 3 (1).
COUNTING DAYS — SHORT PERIODS
<!-- TRANSIT - HYPERLINK --><!-- .tribunaux judiciaires (Loi sur les) - Règl. de l'Ont. 114/99. -->(2) If a rule or order provides a period of less than seven days for something to be done, Saturdays, Sundays and other days when all court offices are closed do not count as part of the period. O. Reg. 114/99, r. 3 (2).
No Brief or other document can be filed after 2 p.m. two days before the Conference.
So here is the question.... if your Case Conference is on a Wednesday, is the Respondent is supposed to serve his Brief on the Thursday prior?
Here's a tidbit of information I was not aware of: Case Conference Briefs do not become part of the Continuing Record and must be either returned to the parties after the conference, or destroyed.
