Dispute chronology

A dated, one-line-per-event record of the dispute — the single most useful document in any file.

GENERAL LEGAL INFORMATION — NOT LEGAL ADVICE. This template helps you organize your own situation; adapt every bracketed field and verify requirements with official sources before relying on it.

DISPUTE CHRONOLOGY
Matter: [ONE-LINE DESCRIPTION]
Prepared by: [YOUR NAME]        Last updated: [DATE]

DATE        | EVENT (facts only, no argument)                | PROOF (document, photo, witness)
------------|------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------
[YYYY-MM-DD]| [What happened, in one factual sentence]       | [e.g. email of same date]
[YYYY-MM-DD]| [Next event]                                   | [e.g. invoice no. 1234]
[YYYY-MM-DD]| [Next event]                                   | [e.g. photo, filename]

Tips: keep one row per event; write facts, not conclusions; note every deadline
you were given or set; attach the proof column's documents to your file in the
same order.
