Sometimes they work at night.\nIt's not always obvious.\nAs long as the sign is there, without a time qualifier (eg "8AM to 5 PM), you can get a ticket for not driving the reduced speed.

It simply means that submitting that pleading at that time did not follow the rules of the court. If you do not understand why that is so, it would be best to call the clerk of the court or speak to a lawyer.

The ANNOUNCEMENT was related to end of WWII.  The ENFORCEMENT was related to Korea.  Truman misspoke his doctrine - or was ambiguous - and the Russians and Chinese misjudged his wording, leading to conflagration on the Korean peninsula.  I just don't remember what his misstatement was, precisely.

generally, the doomsday clock is refered to in regards to the minute hand.  Technically there is no second hand.  During the height of the cold war it was as close as two minutes to midnight if I'm not mistaken, but a second hand would just be overly morbid, wouldn't you say?

It means that there would be no further hearings or court action... to complete the thought you'd need the context - it could be deferral pending some event or time ... you didn't give enough facts to fully answer.

It means it is not an offer.  If you sign it, it will not constitute an acceptance and it will not become a contract.
