Description
Measure supplied legal-aid request-to-contact waiting time.
Justice records separate consent status, case identifiers, interpreter appointments, document versions and event clocks. A supplied time-string match does not establish a scheduling conflict, and a precision label does not anonymize a record. Local reimbursement and hearing-date arithmetic do not determine legal eligibility, compliance or appropriate action.
Measure supplied legal-aid request-to-contact waiting time.
When to use this tool
Use Legal Aid Contact Wait Duration when you already have requestTimestampSeconds, contactTimestampSeconds and need to measure supplied legal-aid request-to-contact waiting time.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter requestTimestampSeconds, contactTimestampSeconds. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read waitSeconds. Use the output convention below.
Require contactTimestampSeconds>=requestTimestampSeconds; return contact-request in seconds.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| requestTimestampSeconds | Request Timestamp Seconds | Required. Finite number. |
| contactTimestampSeconds | Contact Timestamp Seconds | Required. Finite number. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| waitSeconds | Wait Seconds | Required. Finite number. |
{
"input": {
"requestTimestampSeconds": 1000,
"contactTimestampSeconds": 2800
},
"output": {
"waitSeconds": 1800
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- No request, contact, clock, deadline, legal compliance, service quality or appropriate response is verified.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Check authoritative case, service, consent and scheduling records with the applicable rules for an actual justice matter. Verify timestamps, permissions and interpretation context; local labels and signed intervals do not establish legal effect, identity or a valid proceeding.
