@SteveP101 - Personally, I mark it as CNR. It keeps my records accurate, as I really did not receive a response. There are a number of agents who may respond well after their expiration date with a positive or negative response, and I update the response for them at that time.

Question for y'all: This agent's automated message read, "If you haven’t heard from me within twelve weeks, please assume that I’m not able to offer representation on this occasion." When you reach the "expiration date" on a query like this, do you treat it as a CNR or a rejection?
