Renaming of ‘Critical Dates’ table to ‘Important Dates’

As a result of some technical issues, it has been necessary to rename the Critical Dates Table to ‘Important Dates‘.  Any matter that currently has this Table included will automatically update to the new name.

We do not foresee this causing clients any issues and has resolved the technical problems our clients were experiencing with the New South Wales Settlement Adjustment Sheet.
