What the caption Ray v. Dufresne Spencer Group LLC et al No. 1 represents

Ray v. Dufresne Spencer Group LLC et al No. 1 is a civil case caption used to identify a discrete court matter by party names and docket identifier. The caption ordinarily appears on the complaint, subsequent motions, and all filed pleadings to link filings to the correct court file. For users preparing documents, the caption functions as the primary index: it directs service, establishes the case reference for the clerk’s office, and must match the court’s docketing entry exactly to avoid administrative confusion or misfiling.

Why accurate case captioning and format matter

A correct caption and properly prepared pleading reduce filing delays, prevent misrouting by court clerks, and ensure enforceable service. Precise formatting supports case management, preserves statutory deadlines, and simplifies subsequent e-filing, notarization, and record retention.
