Q: Actual due date for appeal
When due date to appeal falls on thanksgiving date 11/28/24, when is actual due date given thanksgiving holidays?
A:
Under California Rules of Court Rule 1.10, when the last day to file an appeal falls on Thanksgiving (November 28, 2024), the deadline extends to the next court day.
Since both Thursday (Thanksgiving) and Friday (November 29, 2024) are court holidays in California, your appeal deadline would extend to Monday, December 2, 2024. This extension applies automatically - you don't need to file any special requests or motions.
Keep in mind that while December 2nd is your legal deadline, it's wise to file earlier if possible to avoid any last-minute technical issues or filing complications. You should also verify the specific filing requirements and hours for your particular court, as some courts may have modified schedules around holiday periods.
