Disposition date may mean slightly different things in different legal contexts. However, generally the disposition date on a court document refers to the date in which a particular legal matter was adjudicated.

Typically, disposition is a term that can be used for sentencing and is commonly used in juvenile court.

The date the case resolved, either via a plea or conviction. Don't confuse this with the sentencing date, which may not be the same as the disposition date.

It should mean the last day of the case where the judge decides what to do. In an adult criminal case, this is usually the sentencing hearing after a plea or a verdict, and in a juvenile case it is the same thing and is actually called the disposition hearing (we don't punish juveniles, you know, we "rehabilitate" them, and we don't "convict" them of crimes, we "adjudicate" them, at least that's the fiction that is used in juvenile proceedings).
