§ 1-04 Deadlines.
RCNY § 1-04
(a)Computation of days.
(i)Counting calendar days. Where a number of days is specified as a period from a certain day, the days will be counted as the number of calendar days except for the first day of the counting period.
(ii)Where holiday falls within two-day counting period. If the counting period is two days in duration, then Saturday, Sunday, or a legal holiday must be excluded if it falls on the first or last day of the counting period.
(iii)Weekends and holidays. If the scheduled date of a public funds payment, or the deadline for submitting a Certification or for filing a disclosure statement, other than a daily pre-election disclosure statement, falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, the next business day becomes the deadline or scheduled payment date.
(b)Meeting Board deadlines.
(1)With postmark. A submission sent by non-electronic mail or common carrier shall be deemed to have been received, subject to review and acceptance, on the date it was postmarked or date stamped by the carrier.
(2)Without postmark. Submissions sent by non-electronic mail in an envelope without a postmark will be presumed to have been sent three days prior to receipt, subject to review and acceptance, unless evidence presented to the Board, such as a post office receipt with a date stamp indicating when the submission was sent, demonstrates otherwise.
