Current through Register Vol. 43, No. 49, December 5, 2024

Section 82-1-217 - Computation and extension of time

(a) Computation; legal holiday defined. In computing any period of time prescribed or allowed by these rules or by an applicable statute in which the method of computing such time is not otherwise specifically provided, the day of the act, event, or default from which the designated period of time begins to run shall not be included. The last day of the period so computed shall be included, unless it is a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, in which event the period runs until the end of the next day which is not a Saturday, a Sunday, or a legal holiday. When the period of time prescribed or allowed is less than seven days, intermediate Sundays and holidays shall be excluded in the computation. A half holiday shall be considered as other days and not as a holiday. "Legal holiday" includes any day designated as a holiday by the congress of the United States, or by the legislature of this state.

(b) Enlargement. When by these rules or by a notice given under them an act is required or allowed to be done at or within a specified time, the time for doing such act may be extended for good cause shown by the commission in its discretion, or the act may be done subsequent to the expiration of the prescribed time where the failure to act within such time was the result of excusable neglect, as permitted by the commission.

(c) Additional time after service by mail. Service is complete upon mailing. Three days shall be added to the prescribed period for any action required of the recipient.
