If the last day for filing a document with a state agency falls on a Saturday or holiday, when may the act be legally performed?

  1. On the same day

  2. The previous business day

  3. The next business day

  4. Within two business days

The correct answer is: The next business day

If the last day for filing falls on a Saturday or holiday, it cannot legally be performed on the same day (A) as that would still be a non-business day. Similarly, the previous business day (B) may also be a non-business day, so it cannot be considered a safe option. The option of within two business days (D) is incorrect because it only applies if the last day falls on a Friday, not a Saturday or holiday. Therefore, the only remaining and correct option is the next business day (C). This ensures that the act is legally performed on a business day and within the allotted time frame.
