✓ Deliverable created✓ On the firm calendar
- Calendar days or business days
- Each period is counted the way its rule says. Business days skip weekends and Philippine holidays, including ad-hoc proclamations added to the holiday table.
- Deadlines that depend on deadlines
- A rule set can chain periods, so a later deadline counts from the date an earlier one lands on.
- Work and hearings created for you
- The chain creates the deliverables and hearings it computes, ready to be assigned, and they appear on the firm calendar.
- Set by the people who answer for it
- Partners and the office set triggering dates; everyone sees the result.
- The Rules of Court, section by section
- The Rules sit in your Library, one page per rule, read-only for everyone — they change by re-import, never by hand.
