Section 0800-02-13-.08 - TIME(1) In computing any period of time prescribed or allowed by statute, rule, or order, the date of the act, event or default after which the designated period of time begins to run is not to be included. The last day of the period so computed is to be included unless it is a Saturday, a Sunday or a legal holiday, in which event the period runs until the end of the next day which is neither a Saturday, a Sunday nor a legal holiday. When the period of time prescribed or allowed is less than seven days, intermediate Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays shall be excluded in the computation.(2) Except where otherwise prohibited by law, when an act is required to be done within a specified time, the administrative judge may (a) order the period enlarged if the request is made before the expiration of the period originally prescribed or as extended by previous order, or (b) upon motion made after the expiration of the specified period, permit the act to be done late, where the failure to act was the result of excusable neglect.Tenn.
