Frequently asked questions
- Are calendar days different from business days?
- Yes. Calendar days count every day including weekends and holidays. Business days exclude weekends and often public holidays. Always check whether your contract uses 'calendar days' or 'business days'.
- What if the deadline falls on a weekend or holiday?
- Many jurisdictions extend deadlines to the next business day when the computed date is a weekend or holiday. Check your contract language and applicable rules of procedure.
- When does the clock start?
- The trigger date interpretation varies — some contracts count Day 1 as the date of the event; others start counting the following day. Review your contract carefully and consult an attorney if unclear.
