General Court Policies:

chambers or the courtroom.

• The judge may terminate the proceeding if the video conference experience is not acceptable.

• Appropriate conduct is required. Be courteous and patient.

For in−chambers conferences, an official record will not be made, unless the judge determines one is

necessary. Connection information may not be forwarded, distributed or shared with non−parties without

the Court’s advance approval.

• 

Broadcasting, recording or photographing, including "screenshots" or other visual copying of a

• Speak one at a time.

• Spell proper names.

• Position the camera at eye level or slightly above eye level.
