Book Description
Chancery court record books contain entries of court decrees (judgments) by the court clerk. Cases which did not result in a decree are not included. Entries are arranged chronologically by court term. Docket numbers were not consistently included in entries until 1927. Chancery record books are indexed by plaintiff. Prior to 1840, chancery decrees were recorded in the Supreme Court record books (see Series SUPR-CA-002).

Book Description
Case files include all documents generated during the course of a supreme court trial, and may be extensive, minimal or nonexistent for any given case. They may include writs, affidavits, depositions, subpoenas, verdicts, pleas, motions, warrants, bonds, bills of costs, witness certificates, transcripts, and documents relating to appeals, such as bills of exceptions. There may also be supporting documents such as deeds, promissory notes, statements and inventories. Case files are arranged in docket order by court term. Prior to 1895, a case which continued over several court terms was assigned a different docket number for each term, but should be filed under the docket number assigned for the term in which the case ended. After 1895 each case kept the same case number from term to term. In a given court term, case files may be divided into cases which reached a judgment or verdict, and cases which ended before judgment. Judgments in docket order are followed by discontinuances in docket order. If the court clerk did not separate the two types of cases there will be one docket sequence of case files for that term. Miscellaneous files include court administration documents such as jail reports, jury venires, vouchers for costs from court officials or witnesses, financial accounts, and bar admission recommendations. There may also be inquests, and case files unrelated to docketed cases. Chancery Court case files predating Mar. 1840 are included with Supreme Court case files, since Chancery Court was held by the Supreme Court during this period.

Book Description
The series consists of court dockets kept by the court clerk. Court dockets are court calendars which record all cases in order for each court term, assigning a number to each case. Before 1895 Franklin County courts followed an unusual docketing system in which cases were arranged in order of their beginning court term, and kept the same docket number for all court terms. For any given court term, there might be several cases with the same docket number. After 1895, each case retains a unique original number through all court terms. Dockets for the period 1914 to 1943 consist of loose-leaf sheets arranged chronologically, with one sheet recording all information on each case, rather than calendars docketing all cases for each court term. Two card indexes, arranged alphabetically, contain brief entries on supreme court cases from 1897-1935, and 1933-1961. Card entries include references to published Vermont supreme court reports. Docket entries include plaintiff and defendant, attorneys, and a brief summary of action taking place that court term. Entries often include court costs for a case, and may include the criminal charge or type of civil case. Dockets usually record the names of judges and clerk and note court term dates. Early dockets include bar admissions and court accounts. All but the first volume are indexed alphabetically by plaintiff. Chancery cases are intermingled with regular supreme court cases in 1800-1807 dockets, but are identified as chancery in docket entries. Chancery cases are docketed and entered separately after 1808.

Book Description
The series consists largely of Orleans County supreme court dockets, and includes two judges' dockets, one jury list docket, and two general term dockets. Court dockets, kept by the court clerk, are court calendars which record all cases in order for each court term, assigning a unique number to each case. Docket entries include plaintiff and defendant, attorneys, jury members, and a brief summary of action taking place that court term. Entries often include court costs for a case. Early dockets also include jury lists, admissions to the supreme court bar and court administrative costs. Beginning in 1848, dockets are indexed by plaintiff. Until 1842, the chancery court docket comprises the last section of the supreme court docket. The two judges' dockets in this series appear to be identical to the court dockets kept by the court clerk. The jury list docket records grand and petit jurors for the covered court terms. The two general term dockets, which list cases heard from several counties, include handwritten entries for the Orleans County cases which are similar to those found in the regular court dockets.

Book Description
The series consists of court dockets kept by the court clerk. Court dockets are court calendars which record all cases in order for each court term, assigning a unique number to each case. Docket numbers change from term to term until 1895, when each case retains its original number through all court terms. After the supreme court moved to Montpelier in 1906, ending county sessions, docket numbers are inconsistent because the county clerk and supreme court clerk assigned different docket numbers to the same case. Docket entries include plaintiff and defendant, attorneys, and a brief summary of action taking place that court term. Entries often include court costs for a case. Dockets usually record the names of judges and clerk and note court term dates. They may also include admissions to the supreme court bar and court administrative costs. Most early supreme court dockets are not indexed. Chancery cases are intermingled with regular supreme court cases in the 1837 docket, but are indentified as chancery in docket entries. Chancery cases are docketed separately in 1838-1840 supreme court dockets.

Book Description
Case files include all of the documents generated during the process of a chancery court trial, and may be extensive, minimal or nonexistent for any given case. Most documents are related to real estate foreclosures, and include a bill of foreclosure, a master's report that calculates the amount owed on the mortgage, and a decree of foreclosure if the plaintiff wins the case. Supporting documents often include mortgages, deeds, promissory notes and receipts. Subpoenas, affidavits, depositions, motions, pleas, bills of costs, and testimony transcripts may also be included. Cases involving requests for injunctions include a bill of complaint and the defendant's answer to the bill. There may also be findings of fact and temporary or permanent injunctions. A third category of chancery case files includes documents related to dissolving business partnerships and corporations and placing businesses in receivership. Chancery case files are arranged in docket order for each court term. Until 1895 a case which continued over several court terms was assigned a different docket number for each term, but should be filed under the docket number assigned for the term in which the case ended. After 1895 each case kept the same case number from term to term. Note that pre-1840 chancery court case files are included with supreme court case files (see Series SUPR-CA-003), since chancery court was held by the supreme court during that period.

Book Description
Record books contain entries by the court clerk summarizing each case that ended in a judgment. Lamoille supreme court records cover the years 1840-1909, with some gaps. The recording of supreme court judgments was highly irregular. Only 1886-1909 entries are arranged consistently in chronological order by court term, in volumes exclusively limited to the supreme court. Because of the scattered nature of these records, and the lack of indexes for some volumes, the researcher must rely on the master General Index of County and Supreme Court Records to locate judgment entries for individual cases. The two master index volumes cover county court cases between 1836 and 1947, but post-1900 supreme court entries are incomplete. Index entries are arranged alphabetically by plaintiff for each court term, and include record book volumes, page numbers, case beginning and ending dates, and docket numbers. The indexes also include entries on discontinued cases, which are not included in the record books, but which may have case files. In addition to the two index volumes arranged by plaintiff, there is a set of index cards recording 1836-1968 county and supreme court cases by defendant. The cards are arranged alphabetically, but within each letter there is no alphabetical or chronological order of cases.
