Re: court docket
Without further information regarding the specific context as to the use of this phraseology(remove your name from a court docket), there's no way to say for sure what this particular judge might have meant if in fact he actually uttered this (or something similar but somewhat different).
Re: court docket
A court docket is simply a list of cases that will be called to court. There is no telling what the judge did by removing your name. I don't have enough information to tell if the charge was dismissed or not. It sounds like it was just continued. Also, a court docket has nothing to do with a background check. A background check shows arrests and convictions, and that's it.
