Court orders can contain multiple obligations with different deadlines and responsible parties. This example shows how DueCounsel reads a court order and structures every date-driven obligation for lawyer review.

The Applicant shall serve a notice of motion no later than March 31, 2026. 3. The parties shall attend mediation on or before April 15, 2026. 4. Costs of $2,000 are payable by the Respondent within 30 days.

Why this matters
Court orders routinely impose multiple obligations on different parties with different deadlines. Missing a single compliance date can result in default proceedings, costs awards, or contempt findings.
Lawyer review required
DueCounsel extracts obligations from the order text. Dates computed from the order date (e.g. "14 days from order") are labeled Medium confidence — verify the trigger date before confirming.
