Practice question
In a covered RTC local-tax case, a timely first reconsideration motion is denied. The party files certiorari forty days after notice of denial. No different issue affects timing. Is it beyond the ordinary sixty-day period solely on that interval?
- Yes; every interval above one day is late.
- Yes; the sixty-day rule means thirty days.
- No; because no timing rules apply at all.
- No; forty days is within the stated ordinary period.
- Yes; denial notice is never relevant.
