Text

Unless the court orders otherwise, if a filing must be made by or on a particular date (e.g., “due on August 1”), and that date is a Saturday, Sunday, legal holiday, or day when the clerk’s office is inaccessible, then the time for filing is extended to the first accessible day that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday. In applying this rule, the terms used are to be given the same meaning as they have in the provisions of Fed. R. Civ. P. 6(a) governing deadlines that are expressed as periods of time to be computed.
