as i understand it the resolution deadline is not 42 days (a common misconception) the 42 days relate to the time from the incident/event to the complaint being made. as far as i can translate the rules there is no actual time limit for the SC to come to a decision, although good practice would dictate as quick a repsonse as possible. if i am incorrect i would be happy to be told so.
"The Hearing will normally be held within 35 days of receipt of a competent complaint" and
"Judgements shall be made in writing and shall be communicated to the relevant parties normally within 14 days of the Hearing"
suggests a maximum 49 days maximum subject to
"The Panel may adjourn the Hearing (but not for longer than 14 days)"
making a new maximum of 63 days but given the use of the word "normally" suggests that the timing may be elastic.
