A quick definition of court docket:

A court docket is a list of all the cases that a court is handling. It includes important information like the case number, the names of the people involved, and what has happened in the case so far. The court uses the docket to keep track of everything that is going on and to make sure that each case is handled fairly. Anyone can look at a court docket because it is a public record.

A more thorough explanation:

A court docket is a list of scheduled court proceedings and filings that helps the court keep track of multiple cases. It typically includes:

  • A docket number that identifies the case
  • A history of the case, listing all events that have occurred
  • The name of the court where the case is being heard
  • The questions presented in the case
  • The names of the parties involved

Court dockets are considered public records, meaning anyone can access them.

John is a lawyer who wants to know when his client's case will be heard in court. He checks the court docket and sees that the case is scheduled for next Tuesday at 10am in the District Court of New York. The docket also shows that the case involves a dispute over a contract between John's client and a business partner.

This example illustrates how a court docket can provide important information about a case, including the date and time of the hearing, the court where it will be held, and the nature of the dispute.
