A plaint number is "an old-fashioned term for a claim number".[1][2]
It was formerly used in the British court system.[3] The term continues to be used in Australia, and searches for court records in Australian use the plaint number.[4][5][6][7][8][9]
Claims under administrative law for medical malpractice or other professional misconduct may also use a plaint number.[10]
