Deadline Engine
Every calculator names its rule, and its day-count is verified at runtime against the verbatim rule text in the corpus — a calculator whose number can't be found in the loaded rule says so instead of pretending. Estimates use calendar days with weekend rollover; court holidays are NOT computed, and the summons, order, and current rules always control.
Service of the initial pleading must generally be effected within this window or the pleading faces dismissal/abatement exposure.
◌ Day-count not confirmed against the loaded rule text — treat as unverified and read Rule 12.070 directly.

The party who set the temporary-relief hearing serves the required documents in advance of it.
◌ Day-count not confirmed against the loaded rule text — treat as unverified and read Rule 12.285 directly.

◌ Day-count not confirmed against the loaded rule text — treat as unverified and read Rule 12.351 directly.
Educational estimates for organizing your case — not legal advice and not a docketing system. Time computation has edge cases (holidays, service method, court orders) this engine does not resolve; when a date matters, verify it against the current rules or with a Florida attorney. Deadlines you save from the I Was Served triage appear on your dashboard.
