Notice-of-appeal deadline with tolling post-judgment motions: pending check · case 01

An undisposed tolling motion is ignored once another motion has been decided.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 7 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

Pending motions are only reported when no motion has been disposed yet.

THE FAILURE

Pending motions are only reported when no motion has been disposed yet.

Unsuccessful approach: The partial repair `pending and len(motions) == 1` only reports pending when there is a single motion.

Case contract

Stipulated: the period is 30 days after entry of judgment, or 60 days if any party is the united-states, an agency or an officer. A motion filed within 28 days after entry (inclusive) tolls the period, which then runs from the latest disposition of such motions; if any tolling motion is undisposed the result is "pending". Untimely motions have no effect. A deadline on a Saturday, Sunday or listed holiday moves to the next open day.

Why this case matters

Docketing systems compute filing and response deadlines from trigger events; a wrong date can forfeit a right.

HELD IN THE MEMBER ARCHIVE

The verified repair and its recorded checks are member-only.

This mechanism has 7 recorded checks per implementation. The open-access tier publishes the failure and the unsuccessful fix; the repaired source that passes every check, and the observations that prove it, are available to members.

Every case sharing this mechanism uses the same contract and the same repair, so this one record is held back for all of them.

Member access is invitation-based. Sign in with your invited account to inspect the repair.

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 2026-09-29T14:49:26.382654+00:00.
