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.

  94. Event Resulted: Pre-Trial Conference scheduled on: 08/28/2024 11:00 AM Has been: Held via video Hon. Robert B. Foster, Presiding August 28, 2024. Pre-Trial Conference held via Zoom. Attorneys Adam J. Brodsky, William Edes, Meredith Fine, and William Sheehan, III appeared. The Court confirms with the parties that this matter will not be tried under Land Court Rule 14. The two issues to be tried are (a) the claim for prescriptive easement over Piraino Lane and the driveway and (b) the dispute over the scope of Marlow's easement over the Foley/Christiansen property (the Foley easement). The Court is also in receipt of the Motion for Leave to Amend to Specify Defense of Abandonment of Defendants Kevin Foley and Lisa Christiansen. After arguments, the motion is ALLOWED, and the Foley/Christiansen answer is amended to add the affirmative defense of abandonment. Discovery is reopened to allow the other parties to take discovery on the abandonment issue and will close on December 2, 2024. Any Motions in Limine are due on January 2, 2025 and responses due February 3, 2025. The hearing on the Motions in Limine is set down for February 11, 2025 at 9:30am by Zoom. At trial, Marlow bears the burden of proof on the prescriptive easement claim and the scope of the Foley easement, and Foley and Christiansen bear the burden of proof on their affirmative defenses of extinguishment and abandonment of the Foley easement. Marlow will present her case on the prescriptive easement first, with Foley and Christiansen in support, and the Piraino Trust will respond to the prescriptive easement case. Then, Foley and Christiansen will present their case on extinguishment and abandonment of the Foley easement, along with their case on the scope of the easement, followed by Marlow with the Piraino Trust in support. Any third-party witnesses that will provide testimony on both issues will be called once, but the parties may be called separately in each phase of the trial. The view is tentatively set down for March 19, 2025 at the property on 8:30am and followed that day by trial tentatively to be held at Northeast Housing Court in Salem. The remainder of the day of trial is set down for March 20 and 21 at the Courthouse in Boston. The parties are to confer and provide a status to the Court pertaining to trial dates by September 11, 2024. (Foster, J.)

See the patterns behind this case

The free view above tells you who’s in the room. The detailed reports below show how the room tends to behave — using the same public records lawyers quietly rely on before every hearing.

  • Judge Report

    How this judge has ruled in cases like yours — case mix, motion outcomes, and historical docket. Judges set the floor of what’s possible in your courtroom.

  • Attorney vs Judge Report

    Everything in the Judge Report, plus how your attorney has actually performed in front of this judge. Attorneys move you off the floor — or don’t.

One-time payment, no subscription. Reports describe past public court activity — they don’t predict outcomes and they aren’t legal advice.
