The widest jurisdiction of any High Court in India, across the hardest travel geography in the country. Lawgger carries all four sittings on one screen.
The Gauhati High Court sits at Guwahati with benches at Kohima, Aizawl and Itanagar, and serves Assam, Nagaland, Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh. Lawgger carries cause lists for all four sittings on any date, the live display boards through court hours, and CNR case tracking with a plain-words digest.
No other High Court in India has this reach. The Gauhati High Court is the High Court for Assam, Nagaland, Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh — four separate states, each with its own legislature, its own statute book and its own district courts, served by four sittings in four cities across the North East.
It used to be wider still. Meghalaya, Manipur and Tripura came under this court until 2013, when each of the three was given its own High Court. What remains is a jurisdiction that still spans a region larger and more varied than most single-state courts will ever see.
The principal seat of the court, for Assam. Cause lists for any date and the live board through court hours.
The bench for Nagaland. Same coverage — lists, board, CNR tracking, alerts — inside the same watchlist.
The bench for Mizoram. Lists on any date, the board while the court sits, and the plain-words order digest.
The bench for Arunachal Pradesh. Covered on the same terms as the principal seat, with no separate setup.
Which matters are heard where is governed by the court's own rules and notifications. Lawgger shows listings as published.
On most pages, "1,607 central and state acts across 37 jurisdictions" is a coverage number. Here it is the requirement.
An advocate at this court can be arguing under Nagaland law on Tuesday and Assam law on Thursday. The central law does not move between the two. The state law does — separate legislatures, separate amendments, separate histories, and in this region separate constitutional and administrative arrangements that have shaped how state legislation applies.
Two things follow, and they are practical rather than theoretical.
First, you need the right statute book, not a nearby one. A provision quoted from one state's act is not evidence of what the neighbouring state's act says, however similar the drafting looks. Lawgger carries all 37 jurisdictions so the text you read is the one in force where you are arguing.
Second, you need a verdict on every authority. A case decided under a provision that has since been amended in that state may have been quietly displaced while remaining perfectly good law elsewhere. Lawgger checks each authority it surfaces and says so — still good law, or overruled, doubted or otherwise displaced — and every answer is pin-cited to the page so you can read the passage in place.
Paste a draft brief into Authority Check and get a Table of Authorities with a verdict against each case in it. See legal research and good-law checking. Nothing on this page asserts any proposition of state law; it describes what the software does and leaves the argument where it belongs.
This court's jurisdiction has the hardest travel geography in the country. The argument for remote list-watching is stronger here than anywhere else on this site.
By case number or CNR. Guwahati, Kohima, Aizawl and Itanagar all go into one watchlist. There is no per-bench setup and no separate login for a bench you visit twice a year.
When lists are published you are told which sitting, which court and which item — in time to decide whether a journey is being made, or whether local counsel is being instructed instead.
Through court hours you can see the item being taken up at the bench in question, so an advocate holding a brief for you several hundred kilometres away does not have to keep telephoning.
See the cause list guide for how advance, daily and supplementary lists differ, and advocate-wise cause lists for reading a list by name.
Two numbers: the court number and the item number being taken up now. Against your own item, that is the only reliable measure of how the day is moving.
The notation is short. Pass over — called and stood down, to be taken again later in the sitting. Part heard — continuing from an earlier day. Not reached — the court did not get to it, and it returns to the cycle.
Lawgger's boards run live, generally 10:30 to 16:30 IST, across 527 courts and 426 benches — the Supreme Court, all 25 High Courts, and the NCLT, NCLAT and CAT. This website does not show live court data; the boards are in the app. Read the display board guide.
Four states means four district-court systems, and for most advocates in this region the district court is the daily reality rather than the bench in another state's capital.
Lawgger carries cause lists for around 700 district courts nationally, for any court on any date, across 722 districts in 35 states and union territories. Save a matter by CNR and every order arrives as a plain-words digest with the next date attached — interim stay granted; counter due in four weeks — and every listing arrives as an alert.
See case status, case tracking and what a CNR number is.
Four states and a great many languages between them — Assamese and Bengali most widely, alongside the languages of Nagaland, Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh. English does a great deal of the formal work, but the language a client speaks and the language a brief is drafted in are frequently not the same.
Lawgger works in 10 Indian languages. Ask in one, read the answer in it, and the judgment behind the answer stays available in full text in the language it was delivered in, pin-cited to the page. That is what keeps a translated answer citable. See how the AI works. The current list of supported languages is shown in the app.
Lawgger holds 21 statutory limitation clocks. Give it the dates and it computes the running period and shows what remains, rolling past weekends, gazetted holidays and court vacations so the answer is a working date rather than an arithmetical one. Where a filing will need an application under section 5, it raises a condonation flag.
In a practice where a certified copy may take a journey to collect and a filing may take another to make, the calendar is not a formality. It is a computation on the dates you supply — not advice, and no substitute for your own reading of the Limitation Act. Try the limitation calculator and see practice management.
It is the High Court for Assam, Nagaland, Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh. It sits at Guwahati as its principal seat, with benches at Kohima, Aizawl and Itanagar. That makes it the only High Court in India serving four separate states, each with its own state statute book.
Yes, all four sittings. Lawgger carries cause lists for any date and live display boards through court hours at Guwahati, Kohima, Aizawl and Itanagar, with matters from all four in a single watchlist so you get one evening view instead of four separate checks.
The list for a hearing day goes out on the evening before, and supplementary items can be added later the same night. There is no fixed clock time. Lawgger shows each sitting's list as soon as the court publishes it and alerts you if a matter you are watching appears at any of the four.
Yes, inside the app. Boards run live through court hours, roughly 10:30 to 16:30 IST, and show the item number being taken up in each court. Lawgger carries live boards for the Supreme Court, all 25 High Courts and the NCLT, NCLAT and CAT. This website does not show live court data.
Yes. Lawgger carries 1,607 central and state acts across all 37 jurisdictions, which includes the statute books of Assam, Nagaland, Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh. Authorities decided under them carry a good-law verdict, so you check where a provision and its case law now stand rather than assuming.
