FA-77386 / Legal deadline computation / Open access
Backward-counted filing deadline before a hearing: hearing day exclusion · case 01
The filing deadline is one day later than allowed because the hearing day is counted.
ROOT CAUSE
Backward counting starts as if the hearing day were day one.
VERIFIED REPAIR
At the hearing day exclusion decision use `h`, leaving the other decision sites of the model unchanged.
Unsuccessful approach: The partial repair `h - dt.timedelta(days=1)` skips the day before the hearing and ends a day early.
Case contract
A paper must be filed at least days before the hearing. Stipulated rule: exclude the hearing day and count backward; when court_days is true only open days (not Saturday, Sunday or a listed holiday) are counted. If the resulting day is closed, the deadline moves backward to the preceding open day.
Why this case matters
Docketing systems compute filing and response deadlines from trigger events; a wrong date can forfeit a right.

Verification & scope
Stipulated toy deadline rules evaluated offline on explicit fixtures. The contract is inspired by common court-rule structures but is not legal advice and makes no claim to reproduce any jurisdiction's rules. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
Observations recorded using Python 3.12.14 at 2026-09-29T14:49:25.105576+00:00.
