How can generated complaint data represent handling deadlines and permitted clock changes?

A timer ledger can represent separate complaint obligations, their policy basis and any permitted changes without collapsing all timing into one deadline field.

A release can represent timing through a `case_timers` table linked to complaints and policies. Useful fields include `timer_id`, `case_id`, `obligation_type`, `trigger_event_id`, `due_at`, `calendar_id`, `timezone` and `policy_rule_id`. Different obligations can have different triggers; acknowledgement and escalation should not automatically share one clock.

A separate timer ledger can record `started`, `paused`, `resumed`, `recalculated` and `satisfied` events. Each change should identify its authorising rule and the event that caused it. A missing document should not stop a timer unless the supplied policy permits that behaviour.

MirrorFirm could generate calendar definitions and policy-driven timer transitions as part of an environment. Exact durations and pause conditions should be scoped with the buyer rather than assumed to represent a universal service level.

For onward distribution, retain machine-readable timestamps and calendar references in JSONL or Parquet exports. A reseller can also expose a `get_timer_state` tool for customers using an interactive interface. Keeping the timer ledger separate from case status allows downstream systems to recognise that a complaint can remain under investigation while a particular obligation has already become overdue.

Expose timing rules explicitly so downstream customers can build deadline-aware systems against inspectable generated state.
