# '''{{{{{1}}}|Illegality}} and {{isdaprov|Force Majeure}}''': Here, if you are on a {{2002ma}}, there may be a {{{{{1}}}|Waiting Period}} to sit through, to see whether the difficulty clears. For {{isdaprov|Force Majeure Event}} it is eight {{isdaprov|Local Business Day}}s; for {{isdaprov|Illegality}} ''other than one preventing performance of a {{isdaprov|Credit Support Document}}'': three {{isdaprov|Local Business Day}}s. So, sit through it. Why is there exception for {{isdaprov|Illegality}} on a {{isdaprov|Credit Support Document}}? Because, even though it wasn’t your fault, illegality of a {{isdaprov|Credit Support Document}} profoundly changes your credit assessment (in a way that arguably, even a payment or delivery obligation doesn’t), and that is the most fundamental risk you are managing under the {{isdama}}.
