Self-Represented Litigant Guidance Routing Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Self-represented parties often miss steps, and hearing time gets spent on gaps that could have been fixed before the day. Before a hearing, the agent reviews the file and lists what the party has and has not filed. It checks which court-approved guidance sheets apply to the case type, then prepares a neutral procedural checklist for the party and a note for the judge on the open gaps. It does not give legal advice and it uses only court-approved wording. When new filings arrive, it updates the checklist. The judge approves what is sent so the court stays neutral. Edge case: the party filed a response but not the required proof of service, so the checklist lists only that item.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

It lists a gap only when the requirement for the hearing type is clear and no filing meets it. It selects guidance sheets by hearing and case type, never by party strategy.

  • Only items required by rule for this hearing are listed
  • Only court-approved guidance wording is used
  • An unclear requirement is sent to the judge, not to the party
  • Checklist is updated up to 24 hours before the hearing

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Hearing types covered
  • Guidance sheets allowed
  • How early the checklist goes out (default 7 days)
  • Language options for the checklist

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Judge approves the checklist before it goes to the party

Hard limits

  • Never gives legal advice or tells a party what to argue
  • Never sends anything without the judge's approval

It stops when

  • Done: hearing held or checklist superseded
  • Stop: party obtains counsel, so the process ends

An example run

What happensAhead of a small claims hearing, the agent found a complaint and answer on file but no proof of service. It listed that item and matched the court's service guidance sheet. The check on clarity failed for a second item about exhibits, so it flagged that to the judge. The judge approved the checklist with the first item only. The party filed proof two days later.
