Offer Of Judgment Analyzer in Rhode Island

Under Rhode Island Rule of Civil Procedure 68, a party served with an offer of judgment has 10 days to accept it. This 10-day period begins running from the date the offer is served, and if the offeree does not accept within that window, the offer is deemed withdrawn. The rule governs offers made by either party and can shift certain costs if the final judgment is less favorable than the rejected offer. The official source, available at the Rhode Island Superior Court rules page, provides the full text and any applicable exceptions or procedural details. The DocketMath calculator applies this 10-day rule and the relevant cost-shifting provisions to estimate your specific outcome based on your case details.
