Notes:
No significant "history" of past hearings, whether actually held or canceled, is maintained by most participating courts. So a court docket/schedule of the case's hearings is inherently "forward-looking". Thus the restriction on re-use of data in the Terms of Use ensures that a past hearing won't be presented in such a way as to imply that it actually took place.
