Cause lists and next hearing dates
The Calcutta HC publishes daily cause lists of matters listed before each bench. Your case’s next date also appears on its eCourts case status page once the order sheet is updated. Advocates appearing in several courts usually check both every evening — which is exactly the routine JusticeTrack automates.
