The cutoff is 4pm two clear business days before the court date for a Magistrates Court listing, and 1pm on the last business day before for a Brisbane District Court listing.
So a Friday mention has to be in by 4pm on the Tuesday. Public holidays are skipped. The Lodge by chip at the top of the Adjourn Online sheet shows the court’s deadline for the matter you’ve picked.
After the cutoff
Once the cutoff passes, Acquit blocks the online lodgement because the court won’t accept it: contact the registry instead. Hover a court date’s Adjourn Online button at any time to see its Lodge online by deadline; after the cutoff the button is greyed out.
The 8am reminder
An 8:00am in-app reminder warns you before a mention’s cutoff closes. See the Notifications section for how to tune it.
Adjournment tasks
A task with “adjourn” in its name, linked to a court date, shows the lodgement state at the top of its Adjournment Details card: Application lodged with the time, or Adjourned with the new date. The task’s own status is left alone; tick it complete when you’re ready.
Wherever those tasks are listed, the row carries a small badge next to the client name. Before anything is lodged it counts down to the deadline (3d to lodge, turning amber under a day, then red at Cutoff passed); afterwards it reads Lodged, then Adjourned. Hover it for the exact deadline. Supreme Court and District matters outside Brisbane show Not online, since there’s no online form to lodge.
