The longest daily lists in India, on the smallest screen you own. This is the court where reading a list by scrolling stops working altogether.
The Allahabad High Court sits at Prayagraj with a bench at Lucknow and serves Uttar Pradesh. It is the largest High Court in India by sanctioned judge strength, which means the longest daily lists in the country. Lawgger carries those lists for any date, the live board through court hours, and CNR tracking with a plain-words digest.
Because this is the largest High Court in India by sanctioned judge strength, and every one of those courts publishes its own board every working day.
Most High Courts in India publish a daily list that a patient advocate can read end to end. Allahabad does not. A single day's list runs across a great many courts, at both sittings, with items numbering into the hundreds, and it arrives as one long document the evening before.
The consequence is not that the list is hard to read. It is that the ordinary method of reading it stops working. Opening a long file on a phone at nine in the evening, pinching to zoom, scrolling past four hundred rows looking for a party name spelled slightly differently from how you would spell it — that is not a reading method. It is a lottery with a good success rate, which is the worst kind of system, because it fails rarely enough that you keep trusting it.
This is the single strongest argument for software on any court page on this site, and it is specific to Uttar Pradesh. Elsewhere, an advocate can get by on habit. Here, volume defeats habit.
Lawgger's answer is to invert the direction. You do not go to the list; the list comes to you. Save your matters once, by case number or CNR, and every time either sitting publishes, you are told what concerns you — sitting, court number, bench, item number — and nothing else.
Advocates at this court do not usually search for a "display board". They search for Court View, which is the name in common use here for the live display of what each court is taking up while it sits. Same thing, different word, and it is the word that matters if you are trying to find it.
What it shows is short and entirely practical: the court number, and the item number that court has reached, updated as the day moves. It runs through court hours, typically 10:30 to 16:30 IST.
On a four-hundred-item board, this is not a convenience — it is the only way to know whether your item is a morning away or five minutes away. An advocate with matters before three different courts on the same day can watch all three at once instead of standing in a corridor between them.
Lawgger carries live boards for all 25 High Courts, the Supreme Court and the NCLT, NCLAT and CAT — 527 courts, 426 benches. The display board guide explains the notation you will meet: pass over, part heard, not reached.
The bench at Lucknow serves districts of the Awadh region and runs its own lists, its own boards and its own rhythms. An advocate who appears at both sittings is effectively keeping two rosters in their head, and the second one is always the one that slips.
We do not set out the district allocation between the two sittings on this page. That allocation is governed by the court's own arrangements, and an approximate version of it published on a software company's website would be worse than useless.
What we can say is what the software does: one watchlist across both sittings. Save a matter once and Lawgger tells you which sitting listed it, when, before which bench, at what item. You do not check Prayagraj and then remember to check Lucknow.
Prayagraj, Lucknow, or both together. Most advocates who use this properly choose both and never think about it again.
Case number and CNR are exact. Party and advocate names are approximate, because they are typed by hand and spellings differ between the plaint and the memo of parties. Use both, and trust the exact one.
This is the step that changes the practice. A saved matter is watched in every list at both sittings, permanently, without you doing anything further.
Not the document — your part of it. Three fields, in the evening, wherever you are. See advocate-wise cause lists and the cause list guide.
A district practice across Uttar Pradesh is conducted substantially in Hindi. The client speaks Hindi, the instructions are taken in Hindi, and much of the paper below the High Court is in Hindi. The reported judgment you will cite is in English.
Lawgger works in 10 Indian languages. Ask the question in Hindi, read the answer in Hindi, and the authority it is pin-cited to stays the original text you will put before the court. The language of thinking changes; the language of citation does not. See how the legal AI works, and how to check case status. The current list of supported languages is shown in the app.
Cause lists are covered for around 700 district courts, across 722 districts in 35 states and union territories. Uttar Pradesh accounts for a large share of that on its own, and for most advocates here the district work is the practice, with the High Court sitting above it rather than instead of it.
The same alerts, the same plain-words order digests and the same 21 statutory limitation clocks apply at every level — rolling past weekends, gazetted holidays and court vacations, with a section 5 condonation flag where a filing will be out of time. Try the limitation calculator.
2.07 crore Indian judgments in full text, across the Supreme Court and all 25 High Courts, with 1.28 crore case-to-section links and 18 lakh citation links, set against 1,607 central and state acts across all 37 jurisdictions.
Every answer is pin-cited to the page it came from, so you read the passage in the judgment rather than a summary of it. Every authority carries a good-law verdict — still good law, or overruled, doubted or displaced — and Authority Check will run that test over an entire draft brief, returning a Table of Authorities with a verdict against each case.
See legal research, good-law checking and why pin-citing matters. For criminal practice through the current transition, the IPC to BNS mapping is the place to start.
Court View is the name commonly used at the Allahabad High Court for the live display of what each court is taking up while it sits. It shows the court number and the item number currently on, through court hours, roughly 10:30 to 16:30 IST. Elsewhere in India the same thing is usually called a display board.
Yes. The Lucknow bench is covered on the same footing as Prayagraj — cause lists for any date, the live board through court hours, and CNR case tracking. One watchlist spans both sittings, so an advocate who appears at both is told which sitting has listed a matter without checking two sets of lists.
The court publishes the list for a hearing day on the evening before that day, and supplementary items can follow later that evening or on the hearing morning. No fixed clock time can be relied on. Lawgger shows the list as soon as it is published and alerts you when a matter on your watchlist is named.
Set your name once in the app and Lawgger pulls out every item listed against it, at either sitting, for the date you choose. On lists that run to hundreds of items this is the difference between a minute and half an hour. Advocate-name matching is approximate, so save case numbers for matters you cannot afford to miss.
Yes. The CNR is a permanent identifier that does not change when the case number or year does. Save it once and Lawgger tracks the matter for its whole life, digesting every order into plain words and alerting you when it is listed, adjourned or disposed. Case number and party name searches also work.
Yes. Lawgger works in 10 Indian languages including Hindi. You can ask a research question in Hindi and read the answer in Hindi, while the judgment it is pin-cited to remains the original text you will cite. For a Uttar Pradesh practice that runs substantially in Hindi below the High Court, this is the ordinary way to use it.
