Choose an answer

A.A verdict
B.A ruling
C.A briefcase
D.Case
Hint: It's a word with 4 letters, starting with "C".

Answer

Case

Why this is the answer

A 'case' is heard in court (a court case) and is also something you carry with you (a briefcase/suitcase) -- the riddle plays on both meanings of the word.
