Selected
counted during normal office hours only
is my interpretation.
Sven has a point - there should be a Target Dialet option for legal gobbledygook

I think it means that there is a 24-hour time limit, but the clock only runs during office hours. So if the office hours are 9-5.30 weekdays, and the clock starts at 11 a.m. on Monday, the 24-hour time limit expires at 9.30 a.m. onthe following Thursday of that same week.
Perhaps I should go back to plumbing.

I see that the infamous Polish plumber has extended his activities to legal copywriting in Swedish.
