Trial Scheduling and Procedural Deadline Monitoring
Track court schedules, evidence-submission deadlines, appeal deadlines, and service deadlines to avoid procedural risk.
Trigger Conditions
Including but not limited to:
- Mentions of “上诉期限” (appeal period), “证据提交期限” (evidence-submission deadline), “送达期限” (service deadline), “保全期限” (preservation period), and similar keywords
- Adding, modifying, or inquiring about case deadlines
If the user asks for a procedural deadline monitoring schedule, evidence-submission deadline schedule, service deadline schedule, appeal deadline schedule, or preservation deadline schedule, also use this skill.
Exclusion Situations
Do not use this skill for:
- Adding, modifying, or managing a schedule of case-related times and places
- Managing or inquiring about working hours of lawyers, paralegals, or interns
- General programming tasks unrelated to case deadlines and scheduling
Skill Title
Track court schedules, evidence-submission deadlines, appeal deadlines, service deadlines, preservation periods, and other statutory time limits to avoid procedural risk
Capabilities
- When the user adds, deletes, or modifies statutory starting points such as case-filing time, summons service time, judgment service time, or preservation time, calculate determinable statutory deadline nodes under the Civil Procedure Law (民事诉讼法) and related judicial interpretations
- For each case, when the user has not fully entered all statutory starting points, proactively ask whether relevant information is missing
- Remind judges, prosecutors, arbitrators, lawyers, and others of a case’s litigation deadlines 5 days and 3 days before each statutory deadline
- When the user asks about a case’s deadlines, provide that case’s deadline schedule
- When the user asks about a type of deadline (e.g., evidence-submission deadline), provide a schedule for that deadline type, including all cases requiring evidence submission and the corresponding deadlines
- When the user asks about upcoming deadlines, provide a legal-deadline schedule through 30 days later, including all deadline dates in that window, corresponding cases, and corresponding work items
How to Use
When adding or modifying a case that needs deadline monitoring:
- Create a new case name, or select an existing case by name
- Enter known starting points, such as time of filing materials delivered to court, case-filing time, judgment service time, hearing time, preservation time, etc.
- Under the Civil Procedure Law and related judicial interpretations, calculate determinable statutory deadline nodes
- Show calculated results to the user and ask whether any dates need adjustment
- Output the user-confirmed procedural monitoring deadline schedule
When the user needs a schedule for a particular legal deadline type:
- Retrieve all cases involving that legal deadline
- Using today’s date as the node, include only cases whose statutory deadline falls after today
- Check whether any case lacks a starting date for that legal deadline and needs user supplementation
- Output cases filtered in steps 2 and 3 together in that legal-deadline schedule
When the user needs an upcoming legal-deadline schedule:
- Ask the user for the screening window
- If the user provides a clear period (e.g., 15 days) or date (e.g., March 2), using today as the node, screen the legal-deadline schedule through that period or date
- If the user does not provide a clear period, using today as the node, screen the legal-deadline schedule through 30 days later
When reminding the user that a statutory deadline for a case is approaching:
- Identify which case the user is currently discussing and retrieve that case’s procedural monitoring deadline schedule
- Check whether the current date has reached 5 days or 3 days before the statutory deadline
- Output a reminder in the form: “Note: Case XX will reach the XX deadline in 5 days (YYYY-MM-DD).”

Example Usage
Scenario: Add a statutory starting date for a case
User input: “For that Company Jia claim dispute, we received the first-instance judgment on March 2.”
SKILL process:
- Match case name: Company Jia v. Company Yi bond/claim dispute case
- Identify task: Add a statutory deadline end date for an existing case
- Retrieve the Civil Procedure Law and related judicial interpretations; locate Article 171 of the Civil Procedure Law
- Ask the user to confirm whether “the appeal period in this case expires on March 17” is correct
- After user confirmation, add the deadline to the case’s procedural monitoring schedule and show the updated schedule
Scripts (if applicable)
- script1.py: Description
- script2.py: Description
Best Practices
- If the user mentions multiple case names and deadline dates at once, first confirm the association between case names and dates, then sort case by case
- If multiple related provisions are retrieved and the statutory deadline cannot be confirmed, ask the user for supplementary information (e.g., ordinary first-instance procedure, summary procedure, or small-claims procedure)
- When the user adds a non-statutory deadline, confirm with the user twice before writing it into the schedule
- When the user creates a case, proactively ask whether additional reminders should be set earlier than 5 days before the statutory deadline (e.g., 10 or 15 days)
Limitations
- This skill does not organize case-related places
- This skill does not assign work tasks
- This skill does not manage work expenses
