Documents & notes
Uploading documents
Open a case and click the Documents tab.
Click Upload Document. Select one or more files from your computer (PDF, DOCX, JPG, PNG — max 20 MB per file). The file uploads immediately and appears in the list with its name, size, and upload date.
After upload, click the document row to open a detail panel. Set a Document Type (e.g., Affidavit, Order, FIR, Charge Sheet, Judgment) to make searching easier later.
Viewing documents
Click any document row to open the PDF in the on-screen viewer without leaving the case. An Open in new tab link is also available in the viewer for full-screen reading or printing.
Documents are listed newest-first within each group.
Synced court folders
For District Court and Consumer Forum cases, NyayX creates auto-synced court folders inside the Documents tab:
| Folder | Source |
|---|---|
| DC Orders | Daily orders fetched from eCourts for this District Court case |
| CF Orders | Daily orders fetched from e-Jagriti for this Consumer Forum case |
Documents in these folders are read-only (they come from the court) and are refreshed automatically. They do not count against your manual upload storage quota.
For the Hearings tab, past hearing rows that have a matching synced order show a View order (PDF) link directly — you don’t need to go to the Documents tab to find it.
Adding notes
Notes are free-text entries attached to the case — use them for hearing observations, client instructions, or internal reminders.
Notes appear in a separate section below the file list.
Type your note in the text area. Notes support plain text — no markdown.
Click Save Note. Notes are timestamped and show the team member who created them.
