Week of 12 October 2026 in die praktyk

Die datums wat hierdie week skuif, bereken uit die Uniform Rules, die Magistrates' Courts Rules, die Prescription Act en die Public Holidays Act deur dieselfde enjin wat AttorneyOS aandryf. Niks hier word met die hand geskryf nie; elke lyn wys sy reël. Verifieer teen die lêer voordat u daarop staatmaak.

Openbare vakansiedae in die volgende 8 weke

Die dae wat 'n hofdagtelling oorslaan (Uniform Rule 1; Public Holidays Act 36 of 1994, insluitend die Sondagreël).

Beteken of gebeur hierdie Maandag, 12 October: wat die reëls sê

Die eerste twee stappe wat elke sneller aan die gang sit, getel in hofdae waar die reël hofdae sê, met die vakansiedae hierbo oorgeslaan. Die nota wys waar 'n laaste dag op 'n dag geval het wat nie 'n hofdag is nie.
