Pre-trial proceedings
Docket Sounding in felony court is the last effort of the judge and the attorneys involved to schedule specific days and times for trials just prior to the beginning of the trial docket. All victims and witnesses will receive a subpoena for a time certain when scheduled.
Pre-Trial hearings and Docket Sounding in misdemeanor court are similar to Case Management and Docket Sounding in felony court with the exception that, generally, the judge will accept a defendant’s plea of “No Contest” or “Guilty” at any of these times. When no such plea is presented, a trial date is set and victims and witnesses are usually notified by subpoena.

Docket in UK export or department store requisition would connote a 'bordereau', the court register being a non-musical 'sounding' cause or case list and, in Scotland, the court calling list or rolls.

First discussion entry: I considered phase d'instruction as a 'fuzzy match', but found mise en état as a pre-trial review in civil cases only (pre-1998 in E&W, a summons for directions in the High Court).

audience préparatoire
"Docket Sounding" in English translates as "audience préparatoire" in French because it refers to a pre-trial hearing where specific dates and times for trials are scheduled and where the judge accepts the defendant's plea or sets a trial date.
Examples in French:
1. L'audience préparatoire est une étape essentielle du processus judiciaire où les dates et horaires spécifiques des procès sont fixés.
2. Lors de l'audience préparatoire, le juge accepte généralement le plaidoyer de "Non coupable" ou "Coupable" du prévenu.
3. Les victimes et témoins sont souvent convoqués par assignation pour l'audience préparatoire.

Pourrait-on traduire par phase d'instruction ou mise en état ?
