Your case is unique, but you are not alone.

About 41,000 new cases are filed in U.S. courts every weekday. Behind each one is a person trying to understand what happens next. Here’s what the public record can tell you about this matter — and about the people deciding it.

  • Know your judge

    Every judge has a pattern — what they grant, what they deny, how they handle the kinds of motions your case will see.

  • Know your attorney

    See an attorney’s actual track record — case types, courts, and how they’ve performed in front of this judge before.

  • Know your court

    Every courthouse has its own rhythm — filing-to-resolution times, common dispositions, how often cases like yours settle.

Is this judge more likely to rule for the plaintiff or the defendant in cases of this type?

How has your attorney actually performed in front of this judge?

AICasePredict surfaces patterns from public court records. We don’t predict outcomes and we don’t recommend changing your attorney — that’s a conversation for you and them. We just show you what the record already says.

  3. Judgment Determining Heirship
  4. Hearing Held October 5, 2022 Petitioners appear by Richard Robinson who appears in person and by their attorney Tara Walker. Respondents appear by their court appointed attorney Daniel Dennis. Case is called and Mrs. Walker states Petitioners are ready to proceed on their Petition for Determination of Heirship. Evidence is adduced. The Court takes judicial notice of its file and notice of the Waiver of Service signed and filed by the only two heirs, Deborah Sprouse and Richard Robinson, Decedent's siblings. Deborah Sprouse received notice of this hearing but chose not to attend, which the court surmises is due to her residing out of state. The other heir of Decedent is Petitioner Richard Robinson. The Court finds that publication was made in accordance with Missouri law, and no other interested persons appear or file any response to Petitioners' Petition for Determination of Heirship. Other findings are made by the Court, including that a Judgment Determining Heirship should be entered in favor of Petitioners finding that Petitioners are the only surviving heirs of Decedent David Gregory Robinson. Furthermore, that at the time of his death Decedent was the sole owner of a life insurance policy with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, Claim No. 22106001008 with a value of $20,000. Also, that Petitioners are hereby deemed and declared to be fifty percent 50% owners with a one-half interest each in said insurance policy proceeds and property. Costs are to be taken from the cost deposit filed by Petitioner and any additional costs, if any, shall be assessed to Petitioners equally. Mrs. Walker provides a proposed judgment for the Court's consideration. All per Judgment filed. IT IS SO ORDERED.
