As I can read in my dictionary "a docket" is a list of cases waiting for trial in a law court. And there is a note that it is mainly American English. My question is how do we call it in British English?

I'm not a legal expert and maybe there is a specific term but I would use simply the 'court list' or 'hearing list'.

If you are looking for a particular case, this site may help:

Not sure about the answer to the question but thought this a good opportunity to illustrate that docket in British English also means something entirely different, as in here:
