Cause Diary is a case diary for lawyers and litigants in India. Add your cases once. It keeps their hearing dates, cause list entries and orders up to date from the courts' own public websites.
Coming soon for iPhone and iPadWhat you would write in a court diary, kept up to date for you.
Search the Punjab and Haryana High Court by case number, party name or enrolment number. An enrolment number brings up every case you appear in.
Type “CWP 1234 of 2026” and the app finds the case. You can also pick the case type and the year from a list and enter the number.
Add cases manually for about seventy forums, including the Supreme Court, every High Court, NCLT benches, NCLAT, district courts, DRT and consumer commissions.
Import your cases from an Excel or CSV file. High Court and NCLAT cases in the file are matched with the courts' records.
See the registry's objections as they are raised. Once the filing is numbered, the case is added to your desk automatically.
Your matters in the cause list with court, item number and bench, grouped by courtroom, with the video link where the court gives one.
The app checks again in the morning, so a matter added late to the day's list still shows up.
During court hours, see which item each of your courtrooms is hearing and how far away yours is. It can also show on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.
NCLT cause lists for the bench your case is before, and NCLAT hearings and orders from the tribunal's record.
Orders are downloaded as PDF files, so you can open them even without a connection.
A short summary of each order, with the next date and what the order requires of you. Summaries are made on the device with Apple Intelligence, where your device supports it.
Replies to file, dates to keep and directions to comply with, gathered in one list with reminders.
Get notified of a new order, a new listing or a changed date, with a brief each evening of the next day's matters.
Hearings in a calendar of their own, widgets for the Home Screen, and answers from Siri such as what is listed tomorrow.
Invite colleagues through iCloud. Everyone sees the same cases, notes and to-do list, and each person's matters are marked.
Keep a note on any case, pin the ones that matter, and export your case list as a spreadsheet at any time.
There is nothing to sign up for. Your cases stay on your device and in your own iCloud. No advertisements and no tracking.
Lock the app with Face ID or Touch ID.
Three steps, and no sign-up.

Cause Diary is an aid, not an official record. The information it shows comes from public websites that we do not control, and it can be late, incomplete or wrong. Do not rely on the app alone for any date, listing or order: check the court's own record and the certified copy. The app does not give legal advice.
