The way to get docket entries for a docket is to use the docket-entries endpoint. Something like this will usually get you started: https://www.courtlistener.com/api/rest/v3/docket-entries/?docket=17248433 Note that the docket-entries endpoint is not available publicly by default.

If you need access to the above endpoint, please send us an email with how you plan to use the APIs and we can get a conversation going. |
