Calculate Deadline

Florida Deadline Rules

  • Answer to complaint: 20 days after service (Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.140(a))
  • Mail service adds 5 days to all response periods (Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.090(e))
  • Response to motion for summary judgment: 20 days (Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.510(c))
  • Florida legal holidays toll any deadline that falls on that date

You found the deadline. Now what?

The calculator is free. Drafting the actual answer, motion, or response — and tracking the deadline so it doesn’t slip — is what wins or loses your case.
