The clocks that run against owners

Every property statute Chapter 4 reads runs on deadlines. Some fall on the state and some on the owner, and which is which decides who loses when a clock runs out. Below, each statute’s clock step by step, and then the windows that actually ran.

The state must actThe owner must actA court must decideEveryone living there must leave

Each statute’s clock

Each statute’s steps in order, left to right, coloured by who must act. A chevron widens with its time limit on a logarithmic scale, so a week and fifteen years fit on one line; months and years are counted at 30.4 and 365 days to draw them. The track shows order and burden, not a calendar: the durations are not added, because the statute does not say they run back to back.

The windows that ran

Dated windows the chapter records, on a calendar. A side the book does not hold is left open, and a start known only to the month is drawn soft.

Read the windows as a list

Every duration and sentence here is in Chapter 4 as approved, and the page will not build if one is not. These are the deadlines the chapter sets out, not every deadline the statutes contain. None of this is legal advice.
