Existing or taking place within the designated period; seasonable. A legal action is timely filed, for example, when it is brought within the time period set by the Statute of Limitations. The meaning of the term timely must, in a number of situations, be determined on the basis of the facts and circumstances of each individual case. Courts have extensive discretion in determining whether a particular party has acted in a timely manner in filing papers, serving notices, or bringing motions in a legal action. timely adj. within the time required by statute, court rules or contract. Example: a notice of appeal is required to be filed within 60 days of the entry of judgment, so a notice filed on the 61st day is not "timely." How to thank TFD for its existence?
