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.

  26. rng Appntmnt Probate Held EBENCH: 24AL-PR00181, In re Lilyenn York, a minor. Application for Temporary Letters of Guardianship. Petitioner Gary York appears in person and with counsel Colin Young. Minor appears by Guardian ad litem Justin Nelson. Evidence is submitted and the Court being duly advised finds that the child's natural parents are presently unfit, unable or unwilling to serve as natural guardians. There is no pending juvenile proceeding. The child requires a guardian to protect her person and meet daily requirements of food, clothing and shelter. Petitioner is the child's paternal grandfather and is a fit and proper person to be appointed on a temporary basis. These findings are consistent with the recommendation of the Guardian ad litem. Accordingly it is ordered that Temporary/Emergency Letters of Guardianship shall issue to Petitioner Gary York. By agreement, hearing on the issuance of full letters is set January 9, 2025 at 9:00am.
