Calendar call is a procedural event in a court proceeding where the court reviews the cases listed on its docket or calendar for a particular day or session. During a calendar call, the court typically calls out the names of cases scheduled for hearings, trials, or other proceedings, and may inquire about the status of each case. Attorneys representing the parties involved may provide updates on case preparation, discuss any settlement negotiations, or request continuances or other procedural matters. Calendar calls help courts manage their schedules, ensure cases are ready for resolution, and facilitate the efficient administration of justice.
