CELEX – Date Case Lodged Field (lodged)


The Date Case Lodged field in the CELEX database on Justis is part of the DATE group, and contains the date when the case was lodged with the Court Registry, or the date when a request for an Opinion was received by the Economic and Social Committee. For example:

Date Case Lodged     1999/07/13

Date searching in this field is restricted to searching for an exact or truncated date; the date search operators are not available. It is possible to use a search such as "1999 and 07", but this will find documents for the 7th day of the month as well as for July.

In the Outline, this field is called “Date Case Lodged”.

In documents, this field is shown as “Date Case Lodged”.

If you want to use the Date Case Lodged field on the Quick Search screen or in the Full Text box on the Search In EU screen, its name is “lodged”, and you can use a search such as:

lodged[1999/07*]

Used only in the Case Law database (Sector 6).
