Estimated LASC Court Deadline
Calculation Breakdown
Los Angeles Superior Court deadlines depend on the applicable rule, statute, local rule, or court order. Some deadlines are counted in calendar days, while others may require court-day (business-day) counting. The counting method can vary by case type, filing type, and the specific procedural rule that applies.
Many deadlines in Los Angeles Superior Court follow calendar-day counting, similar to the federal approach. Under this method, all days — including weekends and holidays — are counted, and if the final day falls on a weekend or court holiday, the deadline is typically extended to the next business day. However, certain deadlines may require business-day counting. Always check the applicable rule or court order.
If a deadline falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or a court holiday observed by the Los Angeles Superior Court, the deadline is generally extended to the next court business day. This calculator uses the federal holiday schedule as a baseline. LASC may observe additional court-specific holidays not reflected here. Always verify with the official LASC calendar.
