Terms of Service

Last updated July 2026.

These terms cover two calculators and a set of articles about legal deadlines. Using either means you accept what follows.

What this site is, and is not

LitigationDeadline publishes reference calculators and educational articles about how courts count time. It is not a law firm, does not review your case, and using it does not create an attorney-client relationship of any kind. Nothing here is a substitute for advice from a licensed attorney about your specific situation.

Accuracy of the calculators

The Deadline Calculator and Business Days Calculator apply the eleven U.S. federal holidays and, where relevant, the counting method set out in FRCP Rule 6(a). State and local court rules can differ, and this site does not track every jurisdiction's holiday calendar or local rule. Treat every result as a starting point, then confirm it against the rule that actually governs your filing.

Acceptable use

Do not scrape the calculators or articles for republication, attempt to disrupt the site, or use the contact form to send anything other than genuine questions, corrections, or feedback. We reserve the right to block traffic that abuses either tool.

Ownership of content

The articles, calculator interfaces, and site design belong to LitigationDeadline and its publisher. You are welcome to link to any page. Reproducing the article text elsewhere without permission is not.

No warranty

The site, its calculators, and its articles are provided as-is, with no guarantee that a given result will match what a specific court or clerk's office would calculate.

Limitation of liability

To the extent the law allows, LitigationDeadline and its publisher are not liable for losses connected to use of the calculators, the articles, or any site linked from here, including a missed filing deadline.

Governing law and changes

These terms are governed by the law of the state in which the site's publisher operates, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Terms can change without individual notice; the version live on the site at the time you use it is the one that applies.
