The criminal master calendar is the way most courts manage their case flow of criminal cases
In many courts, one Judge is selected to preside over the court’s Criminal Master Calendar, which sets dates for criminal cases to report back to court for certain types of proceedings, including trial.
The Criminal Master Calendar is usually made up of criminal cases either ready for trial or called for some other type of legal proceeding or purpose, such as arraignments, pretrial hearings, preliminary hearings, bail settings, motions, and sentencing.
