Common (Civil) Court Witness Docket
August 1887 Transcribed by: Karen L (Hilderbrand) Stevens
Transcribing old records represents many hours of hard work. Please respect the work of the transcriber. Feel free to use this information in your personal research records. Do not copy the content for any other use or place this content on any webpage/website. If you want to use this information please link to this page.
Docket: "A written list of judicial proceedings set down for trial in a court." The Witness Docket is a list of witnesses that appeared or were summoned to appear during a trial, the distance the person traveled and the amount they were owed for their appearance & travel.
During the many times I've rummaged around in the records at the Marion Co courthouse I've found several court dockets, but I've never found any actual trial records. (Linda)
In this book the court cases are listed on the left page and the witnesses on the right page.
The "Cause of Case" with only letters - I don't know what they mean.
