A deficiency notice starts a clock measured in days, not weeks. Requesting a hearing is what stays the delisting. On Nasdaq, that request must be made within seven days of the notice, and filing it suspends the suspension. Miss it and the stay is unavailable, whatever the merits. NYSE operates its own procedure with different steps and different timing. The hearing is about your plan, not the violation.
