Court lists
You can use the court lists to find the time and place of a court appearance, check what is happening in the court on a particular date or day, obtain information about matters listed for return of subpoena and check previous access orders, and confirm the range of available mediation or hearing dates on offer.
You can check these details in the following ways:
The
online court list and
Search Court NSW Lists app allow you to search for a particular case by name, case number, location, date, jurisdiction, title of presiding officer and type of listing (for example, directions, hearing, judgment and so on). You can search for cases listed up to two weeks in advance, and for historical listings that have occurred in the last seven days. The online court list and mobile app are refreshed every 60 seconds. The mobile app also saves you time by automatically saving recent searches (so you can check the same case again without re-entering your search criteria), and links through to interactive maps detailing the court's location.
The
daily court list is updated at 3.30 pm each day and displays matters listed on the next business day. While this alternate version of the list does not offer the same comprehensive search functionality of the online court list, it does include the names of the specialist case management lists into which cases have been allocated (such as the Professional Negligence List, Defamation List). It also contains additional information for practitioners.
Go to
daily court list, then select the appropriate date; the duty judge rostered is published at the top of the page.
The Office of the Sheriff publishes updated information on jury panels on its
Jury Attendance list webpage.
Each day, registry staff attach two extracts to the
daily court list: the first details the cases listed for return of subpoena; the second captures cases in that day's list in which material has previously been produced, and access orders made at that time e.g. general access.
Go to the
daily court list then select the most recent court list date, and scroll to 'Notices to practitioners' at the bottom of the page.

If you are a lawyer representing a party in a Supreme Court case, you can view details of past and future court listings online, 24 hours a day, using the
Online Registry. The listing information that you can access includes listing date, estimated listing duration, presiding judicial officer, courtroom and location, and listing type (for example, directions, hearing and so on).This service is only available to parties in a case, or their legal representatives. Once registered, you can view those cases in which you have appeared as the solicitor on record; you will not have access to cases in which you are not directly involved.
Additional details about
registration and
viewing case information is available on the Online Registry website.
