When a judge signs off on a case?

Question

Exactly what does it mean? It's the end of the case or what?

Answer 1

Need more info??

Answer 2

After a case has proceeded to judgment, or been resolved through settlement or voluntary dismissal, there is some paperwork that still needs to be done. There is also a period after judgment where either side may move the same court (not as an appeal) for reconsideration of any part of the judgment.

Once all of these procecural steps are complete, the court enters a final judgment at that stage of the proceedings. The judge then signs the final court order for that final judgment.

That is "signing off" on the case.

Answer 3

Judges have to sign off on orders for them to go into effect.

A case ends when a disposition has been reached and the judge either leaves the courtroom or calls the next case.

Answer 5

criminal or civil ?

In criminal cases he will declare a verdict and that is signed.

In civil he decides a case and signs a decission.

So when he signs off on it, that should be the final decision.
Now he will sign off on many motions in the doing of this.
