How the deadline works

Under O.C.G.A. § 9-11-33(a)(2), the answers and objections to interrogatories is due within 30 days after service of the interrogatories. A defendant may respond within 45 days after service of the summons and complaint. When the triggering paper is served by mail, O.C.G.A. § 9-11-6(e) adds 3 days for service by mail or e-mail. A deadline landing on a weekend or court holiday moves to the next business day.
