Adjourn & reschedule

When a hearing is adjourned, you record the outcome and enter the new date — this automatically creates the next hearing entry so nothing falls through the cracks.

1 Open the hearing record

From the Hearings page or the case Hearings tab, click the hearing that was adjourned.

2 Record the outcome

In the hearing detail panel, set Outcome to Adjourned. Optionally enter a Reason (e.g., “Counsel absent”, “Court busy”, “Parties directed to file documents”).

3 Enter the next date

In the Next Date of Hearing (NDOH) field, enter the new date given by the court. Click Save.

NyayX automatically creates a new hearing entry for the NDOH date, linked to the same case and court. You do not need to create a separate hearing manually.

Tip

If you don’t know the NDOH yet (the court said “to be notified”), leave the field blank. You can come back and fill it in when the date is communicated.
