# clsHearingLocationCollection



`clsHearingLocationCollection` loads hearing-location master data together with the location-code description and rotation settings used by scheduling lists.* Its sort override makes grids order by the readable code description rather than the raw code value when requested.



## Purpose

- Returns hearing-location rows with descriptive code text, rotation flags, and address data already populated.

- Supports user-friendly sorting by expiration date and hearing-location description.



## Context

- Namespace: `SAIF.Business.Claim.Legal.TableMaint`

- Assembly/package: `SAIF.Business.Claim.Legal`
