Comment: "Ray's translation fit best in the context I dealt with. Thanks!
I would also have liked to awarded points to Wherestip, who was the first to suggest that it could be "prisoner's dock" instead.
Thanks to all of you for being so kindly to help me out.

FYI
要翻译你的文本得有前后文。
不过，docket 是 "待审名单"，显然那个 he 应该是个检察官或更可能是法官，否则不会 slam back on his prisoner's docket。
这么说，看看上下文，你自己应该已经可以翻译那句话了。

Note from asker:
| Thank you so much, Wenjer. But this "he" is definitely the prisoner, sorry I didn't make it clear. So on second thought maybe Wherestip is right. Yes! Why not? prisoner's dock. It all makes sense here! Thank you! |
Peer comment(s):
| agree |
wherestip
: Agree with Wenjer's interpretation. Definitely need more context. Another possibility is a misuse of "prisoner's dock"

If it's a misuse of prisoner's dock, it would be easier to understand and the interpretation would be quite different.
