I know I'm guilty of waiting until the last minute myself -- but could they not file earlier? Why schedule the filing at the last possible moment, why not even

  Not an expert, but I would guess it gives them more time to prepare the appeal case?

  Typically when you file anything that is going to trigger a new set of due dates for you based on the date of filing, so it is standard practice to file everything the day it is due, or perhaps the day before at most. That being said it is also standard practice to use docketing software to handle calculating due dates, it isn’t the sort of thing you would ever want to handle manually so I wonder how the screw up occurred.
