I. Access to the official website of the Court
Most courts will provide case inquiry service on their official websites. Official website of the relevant court can be found through the search engine, and the entrance of "case inquiry" or similar functions can be found on the website. On the inquiry page, you may need to enter the case number, party name or other relevant information for inquiry. Through official website, we can learn the basic information, trial progress and results of the case.
Second, go to the court archives.
If you need more detailed case information or related documents, you can go to the court archives to inquire. In the file, you need to provide identification and information related to the case so that the staff can assist you in your inquiry. Archives usually keep the original materials, judgments, rulings and other documents of cases, which can provide you with more comprehensive case information.
Third, contact the parties or lawyers.
If you have contact with the litigants or lawyers, you can also ask them about the closing of the case. The client or lawyer usually knows more about the details and progress of the case and can provide you with more specific information. But please note that when it comes to personal privacy and business secrets, they may not be able to disclose too much information.
To sum up:
Inquiries about closed cases can be made by visiting the official website of the court, going to the archives of the court or contacting the parties or lawyers of the case. These channels can provide you with basic information of the case, trial results and related documents. During the inquiry, please make sure to provide accurate information and respect the privacy and rights of others.
