Case detail tabs
Clicking any case in the list opens its detail page. The tab bar runs across the top; on narrow screens the short labels (“Docs”, “Apps”, “Collabs”) are used.
Overview tab
Shows the core case fields plus, for Supreme Court matters, a set of SCI-aware cards.
Status banners (top of page):
- Case Disposed — disposal type — green banner shown when the case is closed or has a disposal date. Below the main card, the last-sync line reads “Final data from SCI · synced …”.
- Tentative next listing: date — yellow banner shown when SCI has published a provisional date before the official next-hearing date is confirmed. The word Tentative appears as a chip.
SCI sync line: for Supreme Court cases, the overview card footer reads “Auto-syncs 3× daily (7 AM, 9 PM, 10:30 PM IST) · last updated …”. See SCI integration.
Counsel card — read-only, two columns: Petitioner’s Counsel and Respondent’s Counsel, populated from SCI records. Hidden when empty.
SCI Orders & Judgements card — list of orders and judgements fetched from SCI, with a type badge (Order / Judgement), date, and short description. Hidden when empty.
Consumer Forum Records card — shown for Consumer Forum cases. Displays the commission level (NCDRC / SCDRC / DCDRC), commission name, and a list of daily orders fetched from e-Jagriti, each with a View order (PDF) link.
Click Edit on the main card to update any editable field.
Hearings tab
Every hearing recorded for this case in reverse-chronological order. Each entry shows the hearing date, court, purpose, and outcome.
For District Court and Consumer Forum cases, past hearing rows that have a synced daily order show a View order (PDF) link directly on the row — tap it to open the PDF in the viewer without leaving the case.
Click Add Hearing to log a new date. See Adding a hearing.
District Court disposal
District Court cases are checked for disposal automatically — up to four times a day and also whenever you open the case. When the court marks a case as disposed:
- Status flips to Closed
- The disposal date is auto-filled from the date of the last hearing (you can edit it)
- All past scheduled hearings are marked as completed
- A Case disposed notification is sent to everyone with access to the case
Parties tab
All parties on the matter — petitioners, respondents, and any additional parties you’ve added. For Supreme Court cases a read-only Counsel (from SCI) section appears at the bottom.
Family court privacy masking: District Court cases filed in family courts are synced with party names shown as XXXXXXX by the eCourts system. Edit the party name here and the real name appears everywhere — calendar, case list, documents — and is never overwritten by future syncs.
Lower Courts tab
History of earlier courts the matter has passed through (High Court, District Court, tribunals). Click Add Earlier Court to record a new entry with:
- Court — name of the earlier court
- Agency state and Agency code — jurisdiction identifiers
- Case number — as filed in that court
- Order date — date of the order being challenged or appealed
- Judges — bench that heard the matter
- Judgment challenged — tick if this court’s order is what’s under appeal in the current matter
Rows support full edit and delete. For Supreme Court cases, earlier-court entries fetched from SCI appear here automatically.
Documents tab
Upload and organize files attached to the case — FIRs, charge sheets, affidavits, orders, judgments. SCI-imported documents land here with a document-kind label (order, judgement, office report, etc.).
PDFs open on-screen in the viewer when you click them; an Open in new tab option is also available. Files are listed newest-first. District Court and Consumer Forum daily orders appear in auto-synced court folders.
See Documents & notes.
Tasks tab
Tasks linked to this specific case. Tasks created here inherit the case context and also appear in the workspace-wide Tasks view. Click Add Task to create a case-specific to-do.
Notes tab
Free-text notes scoped to this case. Use for strategy notes, client instructions, or anything that isn’t a hearing record or a document.
Fees tab
Court fees paid or payable on this matter. Click Add Court Fee to log a new fee. See Court fees.
Applications tab
Interlocutory applications (IAs) filed in this case. See Applications (IA).
Notices tab
Notices issued by the court to parties or counsel. For Supreme Court cases, notices are auto-imported from SCI — no manual entry needed — and grouped by issue date. Each notice shows dispatch date and a colour-coded returnable-date chip (past / due soon / future). See Notices.
Collaborators tab
Teammates from your workspace who have access to this case. Useful for senior-junior review workflows and shared matters.
Meetings tab
Scheduled meetings linked to the case — client meetings, opposing-counsel calls, strategy sessions. Distinct from hearings, which are court appearances.
Objections tab
Objections filed or received on the matter. See Objections.
Diary tab
Chronological diary of everything that happened on the case — entries you recorded plus system events like hearings logged and documents uploaded.
