Practice question
A timely motion for a bill of particulars is denied. At filing, the movant had only two calendar days left to respond. It argues the denial means no response is ever required; the opponent says only those two days remain without the Rule’s floor. Which is best?
- Both positions are correct
- Denial always gives a fresh thirty days
- Section5 preserves the remaining period but guarantees not less than five calendar days after the specified notice
- The court must declare default at once without any procedure
- The motion automatically wins the case
