Morphology

calendaring = calendar (semi-transparent) = calendar + ing

Derived regularly from the verb 'calendar' + -ing, but the courtroom/docket-specific scheduling sense is specialized and may be unfamiliar to general learners.

Etymology

Calendaring comes from calendar, which comes from the Latin calendae ('first day') and calare ('to call'). Long ago people in charge would 'call' the dates for payments and court meetings, so in law calendaring means setting a case on the court calendar.
