In administrative proceedings, there is indeed a time limit for rebutting evidence.
According to the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China, the defendant shall, within 15 days from the date of receiving the copy of the complaint, submit to the people's court the evidence of the administrative act and the normative documents on which it is based, and submit a reply. This means that the defendant needs to submit rebuttal evidence at the same time as the defense.
In addition, according to the Supreme People's Court's Provisions on Several Issues Concerning Evidence in Administrative Litigation, the defendant shall provide all the evidence and normative documents on which the specific administrative act is based within ten days from the date of receiving the copy of the indictment. If the defendant fails to provide evidence or fails to provide evidence within the time limit without justifiable reasons, it shall be deemed that there is no corresponding evidence for the specific administrative act being sued.
Therefore, there is indeed a time limit for adducing evidence in administrative proceedings, that is, within ten days from the date when the defendant receives the copy of the indictment.
To sum up:
In administrative proceedings, the defendant needs to submit rebuttal evidence within the specified time, otherwise it will be regarded as having no corresponding evidence. The time limit for adducing evidence is within ten days after the defendant receives the copy of the indictment.
