Search Triggers, Events & Rules

Sometimes, it is not obvious which Trigger to use to calculate particular deadlines in a case. You can search the Trigger Title when you are calculating, but you may only know the deadline and may not be sure what triggers it, or you may only know the court rule.

Search Triggers, Events & Rules allows you to keyword search all of the DocketCalendar content.

Click on the Research Console Button

You will be taken to the Search Triggers, Events & Rules Tab

To perform a search:

1) Select a Case with the Jurisdiction in question from the dropdown list.

2) Enter a keyword or phrase.

Use as few words as possible, or the root of words, remembering that DocketCalendar will be looking for an exact match. For instance, if you type "appeal", you will find "appealable", but if you type "appealable", you will not find "appeal".

3) Choose whether you want to search any Triggers, Events or Rules within the Jurisdiction by clicking on the applicable checkboxes.

Trigger: This option will search for all Triggers in the Jurisdiction that include the keywords.

Event: This option will search through all events--deadlines and court events--in the Jurisdiction that include the keywords and find the Triggers used to calculate them.

Rules: This option will search for the keywords in all excerpts of procedural rules in the Jurisdiction that relate to events that are calculated using Triggers.

4) Click the Search button.

DocketCalendar will search through the information you have selected and display a list of Triggers. That contain your key word or words. Keywords will be red.

5) Click the arrow to expand any Trigger to see your key word. You can click the arrow next to each event under the trigger to expand the Court Rule
