| Canon 1465. | §1 The so-called canonical time limits are fixed times beyond which rights cease in law. They cannot be extended, nor can they validly be shortened except at the request of the parties.
§2 After hearing the parties, or at their request, the judge can, for a just reason, extend before they expire times fixed by himself or agreed by the parties. These times can never validly be shortened without the consent of the parties. §3 The judge is to ensure that litigation is not unduly prolonged by reason of postponement. |
| Canon 1466. | Where the law does not establish fixed times for concluding procedural actions, the judge is to define them, taking into consideration the nature of each act. |
| Canon 1467. | If the day appointed for a judicial action is a holiday, the fixed term is considered to be postponed to the first subsequent day which is not a holiday. |
