Marking a court date adjourned opens a single Adjourn & Reschedule form that records the adjournment and creates the next listing in one step.
- Open the court date’s detail drawer, open the … menu (top left) and choose Adjourn & Reschedule.
- Check the From row at the top (the listing being adjourned).
- Pick the new date in the To row: open the calendar, or tap a +2 / +4 / +6 / +8 wks chip. Each chip shows the exact date it lands on, always the same weekday as the old listing.
- Type an optional reason (“Trial delisted”). It is saved against the old date and appears on the Case Timeline below it; click Add notes for extra context.
- Click Adjourn & Reschedule.
The new listing’s appearance type defaults to Mention, and time, court and court number carry over from the old date. If the matter is moving registries, click Change on the Same court line, and tick Also add a related event to record a prep call, conference or PSR review at the same time.
Adjourned is not finalised
Just mark adjourned (no new date) is for a matter that continues but has no new date yet. If the matter finished at this appearance, use Record Outcome at the bottom of the drawer instead: it marks the matter finalised properly, so the date drops off your outstanding lists. Record Outcome opens with Adjourned already picked, so it also works as a quick way to adjourn when you do not need the week chips.
Dates waiting on an outcome
If the date is waiting on an outcome (an online adjournment you have filed, or an appearance a town agent is covering), the drawer’s bottom button is called Confirm adjournment. It opens the same form.
How the two dates stay linked
The adjourned date’s Outcome card reads Adjourned to the new date, with your reason under it; click anywhere on the card to open the new listing. Its headline says Adjourned so it cannot be mistaken for a live listing. The new listing stays a normal scheduled date, with an Adjourned from card linking back. The link follows the matter, not a file number, so it stays correct without you tagging anything.
Tip: to reverse a mistaken adjournment, open the adjourned date’s … menu and choose Undo Adjournment (on a finalised date it reads Undo Outcome).
