I'm attempting to set up a spreadsheet that keeps track of pending
cases where a RECEIVED DATE is posted causing a DUE DATE to
automatically propagate.

I have no problem setting up the pending formula (something like "A1
+ 30") but rather in the conditional formatting: I want the DUE DATE
cell to format to red when that date is past due (something like "IF
< TODAY()"). The problem is then in those cells that don't have a
RECEIVED DATE yet (blank). The DUE DATE column will automatically "go
to red" since Excel reads a blank cell as "zero" and computes that
day as "thirty" which is less than today's date.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Please post the formula tou use in conditional formatting
