District Court Cases by Party Name (eCourts) LIVE
Pending and disposed cases naming a person in every court complex of a Maharashtra district, read from the district court’s own site year by year.
Coverage note
The district court site lists no case with this name in these years. It covers cases the courts entered online from 2000, and it matches the name as written, so try the spelling on the court papers too.
What you get
Each case with its court, number, parties and CNR, and where the site shows them its status, hearings and orders, a summary PDF and a zip of the order and judgment PDFs. On long lists, results may be incomplete.
Request parameters
These are the keys of params in the request body. A value shown as from lookup is a code you get by searching for the item by name first, not text you type.
