Illustrative preview · CourtAhead is in development.
Keep different kinds of dates distinct
A court-stated hearing date, a date reported by a party, a possible calculated deadline and your own preparation target do not carry the same certainty. The intended overview keeps each date connected to its source and the work it governs. Missing inputs or unsupported calculations need to remain visible before a possible date is relied on.
Track parallel work without merging it
Several requests can share evidence while keeping different schedules and completion states. The planned workflow links tasks to their proceeding, owner, dependencies and next trigger. A continuance or new order should identify affected work and preserve unrelated schedules. Marking one task complete should not imply that service, proof filing or the wider case is finished.
From question to next step
1
Identify the source
Distinguish dates stated by the court from reported dates and preparation targets.
2
Connect the work
See which task, request or response a date belongs to.
3
Review changes
Revisit affected work when an order, hearing date or record changes.
Connected work
As your case develops
The planned case overview keeps separate proceedings and their schedules connected to shared case context. Moving one hearing should flag its dependent work without silently changing unrelated tasks.
Your decisions
You stay in control
A possible calculated deadline is not a confirmed court date. Missing inputs and unsupported rules need visible review.
No. The intended interface distinguishes confirmed source dates, reported dates, possible calculations and preparation targets. Their basis and uncertainty should remain visible.
Does a reminder mean a task is complete?
No. Notification delivery, your acknowledgment and actual completion are separate states. The record should show what evidence supports completion.
