Brisbane Supreme and District Courts online application for a court listing
Where an adult criminal matter has a current listing and all parties are legally represented, they may apply online for the adjournment of a scheduled listing, or for orders seeking a listing for:
- trial
- sentence
- breach hearing
- pre-trial application
- pre-recording of evidence
- review/mention
- arraignment
- directions.
Before applying, practitioners must obtain the consent of the other party or parties.
If you have any questions or concerns, contact the relevant criminal list manager.

Form 1 - information for allocation of trial dates
Form 2 - Information for allocation of sentence dates
When you cannot apply online
You cannot apply online if:
- You (or any other party) are self-represented
- the matter is in the Childrens Court of Queensland
- filing after 1.00pm on the last business day before the current listing
- you want the matter adjourned to a different courthouse.
If you do not meet the requirements for applying online, email the relevant registry.
What happens next?
The relevant criminal list manager (and, where necessary, the criminal list judge) will consider your application and decide whether to grant the listing sought.
You will be notified electronically of the decision. If your application is refused or if you do not receive a response from the Registry, the current listing will remain unaltered and you must therefore appear in accordance with that listing.
