It's Oct 26th and all is quiet...do deadlines mean absolutely nothing?

If your a lawyer or a litigant, deadlines mean a lot. Missing them can lead to your case being dismissed.

If, however, you are a judge, deadlines are merely guidelines. The judge just might be busy, or on vacation, or actually thinking about the case some more. There is no process to force a judge to issue a decision by a certain time.
