A: You should give the complete index an attorney to look up your case and explain where it stands. What you just described does not get to the meat of what is happening.

Pre-Note means the case has been disposed of before the "Note of Issue was filed."

The case may have been settled or dismissed based on a motion. If you are not sure of what happened, talk to an attorney. Many attorneys will talk to you for free because if you have an issue that will require legal representation they can help you. If there is nothing to worry about the attorney should also tell you this so that you will always remember them in case you actually need legal help later.
