Rule Text
A Computation.
A(1) In computing any period of time prescribed or allowed by these rules, by order of the court, or by any applicable statute, the date of the act, event, or default from which the designated period of time begins to run will not be included. The last day of the period so computed will be included, unless it is a Saturday, a legal holiday (including Sunday), or a day or part of a day on which the court is closed for the purpose of filing documents, closed to the extent ordered by the Chief Justice, or closed before the end of normal working hours during which documents may be filed. In any of those events, the period runs until the end of the next day the court is open.
A(2) If the period so computed relates to serving a public officer or filing a document at a public office, and if the last day will be excluded in computing the period of time within which service is to be made or the document is to be filed, in which event the period runs until the close of office hours on the next day the office is open for business.
A(3) When a party intends to file by mail a document or other thing and the document or other thing is due on a date that all local United States Postal Service facilities unexpectedly are closed in whole or in part, the party filing the brief or other thing will have until the next day that United States Postal Service facilities are open to file the document or other thing.
A(4) When the period of time prescribed or allowed (without regard to section B of this rule) is less than seven days, intermediate Saturdays and legal holidays, including Sundays, will be excluded in the computation.
A(5) As used in this rule, “legal holiday” means legal holiday as defined in ORS 187.010 and ORS 187.020.
B Additional Time After Service by Mail, Electronic Filing System, E-Mail, or Facsimile Communication. Except for service of summons or the initial filing of an appeal, whenever a party has the right to or is required to do some act within a prescribed period after the service of a notice or other document upon that party and the notice or document is served by mail, electronic filing system, e-mail, or facsimile communication, three days will be added to the prescribed period.
