# Delete Event

`lawmatics_delete-event` · Lawmatics MCP tool · Events

Cancel an event/appointment in Lawmatics by ID. Cancellation cannot be undone, but the event record is retained: it remains retrievable and listed with its canceledAt timestamp set. Optionally notify the attendees. Canceling an already-canceled event succeeds without change.

## Input

- **eventId** `string` (required, pattern: ^\d+$) — ID of the event (appointment) to cancel; a numeric string
- **notifyAttendees** `boolean` — Whether to notify attendees that the appointment was cancelled (the API defaults to false when omitted)

## Output

- **id** `string` (required) — ID of the canceled event
- **canceled** `boolean` (required) — Always true when the cancellation succeeded. The event record is NOT removed — it remains retrievable with its canceledAt timestamp set
