Most cases can be found by searching court records, but sometimes a matter is too new, isn't published yet, or simply can't be located. In those cases you can add it manually and maintain the details yourself.

Add a case manually

  1. Start from Add Case and choose the court type.

  2. If a search returns no match, choose the option to enter the details manually.

  3. Fill in what you know — case number, parties, court, stage, and the next hearing date.

  4. Save the case.

Good to know

  • A manually-added case is not refreshed automatically from court records, because there's no confirmed match to track. You keep it up to date yourself, including adding hearings.

  • If you later obtain the CNR or another identifier, you can update the case so it can be matched and tracked.
