Changing how you access the courts in Toronto

The Justice Services Online platform will no longer accept electronic submissions for Toronto matters due to the transition to the new Ontario Courts Public Portal (OCPP). For urgent or time-sensitive filings, please file in-person at the court counter or contact the appropriate court location by email. Counter services will remain open for in-person filings, with extended hours of operations from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

How it works

For all case types, you can use this tool to search:

  • court case title
  • Superior Court of Justice file number
  • Ontario Court of Justice Information number
  • court location
  • next event or hearing type and date (if scheduled)
  • publication bans

For civil cases in the Superior Court of Justice, you can use this tool to search:

  • name of the legal representative of the person or company
  • claim amount
  • date the case was opened
  • most recent order type and date

For criminal cases in the Superior Court of Justice, you can use this tool to search:

  • name of the legal representative of the person or company
  • date the accused person was committed to stand trial in the Superior Court of Justice

For criminal cases in the Ontario Court of Justice, you can use this tool to search:

  • date on which the Information was sworn

This search tool will not provide information about cases that are subject to statutory or court-ordered public access restrictions. It will let you know if a court case is subject to a publication ban. The search tool may not reflect a publication ban that was recently granted. It is your responsibility to check with the appropriate courthouse about whether a case is subject to a publication ban, confirm the details of any publication ban, and comply with any publication bans or other restrictions.

This search tool will only provide information about active criminal cases:

  • with a future court date
  • with a court date within the past 7 days
  • where a bench warrant issued within the past 5 years

If you are not able to find the information you need, you may contact the court office where the case was or is being heard.

You can only use this tool to search for court case information. Any other use is prohibited, including saving, reproducing and distributing the information in this tool.
