Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona

How long?

My wife recently filed for divorce. How long do I have to answer her summons? I heard it's 20 days but I'm not sure if that means 20 business days or 20 days all together. Thanks.

Re: How long?

you have 20 days if she served you in state with a process server. This means 20 days not business days unless the last day falls on a Saturday or Sunday or holiday and then it goes to the MOnday after or to the day after if it falls on a holiday.
