# How Can I Automate Reminders for Upcoming Court Dates?

You automate court date reminders by connecting a case's scheduled hearing to a notification triggered a configurable number of days before, sent to everyone involved in the matter. On **Jestor**, this runs through automation tied to the court date field.

Court dates tracked only on an individual attorney's calendar risk being missed if that attorney is unavailable or the case has been reassigned without a full handoff.

## What untracked court dates cost

- Risk of a court date being missed if an attorney is unavailable
- No systematic reminder reaching the whole team involved in the matter
- Reassigned cases losing track of a hearing date in an incomplete handoff
- Last-minute scrambling to prepare when a date wasn't properly flagged

## How automated court date reminders work

- A scheduled **court date** triggers a reminder a configurable number of days before
- The reminder reaches everyone currently assigned to the matter, not just one person
- A dashboard shows every upcoming court date across the whole firm
- Nothing depends on a single attorney's personal awareness

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Automated reminders remove the risk of a date missed due to unavailability
- Reaching the whole team closes the gap left by an incomplete case handoff
- Consolidated visibility covers every upcoming date in one place
- This scales from a few active cases to a firm managing many court dates
