Deadlines & reminders

Any task with a due date automatically creates a deadline event on the Calendar on that date. This means your tasks and hearings live side-by-side in the same calendar view, giving you a complete picture of your day.

How deadlines appear on the calendar

Deadline events show in grey on the Calendar (compared to the court-colored hearing events). They appear in all three views: Month, Week, and Day.

In Month view, a grey dot on a date means there is a task due that day. In Week/Day view, the deadline appears as a time-block — positioned at the task’s due time if set, or as an all-day event if no time was specified.

Setting a deadline on a task

1 Create or edit a task

Open a task from the Tasks page, or create a new one via New Task.

2 Set the due date

Click the Due Date field and pick a date. Optionally set a due time.

3 Save

Click Save. The deadline event appears on the Calendar immediately.

Removing a deadline

Edit the task and clear the due date field. The calendar event is removed automatically.

Tip

Use deadlines for things like “File written submissions by 15 May” or “Serve notice by Friday”. The Calendar view lets you spot conflicts between court dates and internal deadlines.
