PREPARING FOR YOUR REMOTE APPEARANCE
- Confirm you received the link to connect the day PRIOR to the hearing.
- Prepare in the same way you would if appearing in person.
- Dress appropriately.
- Think about your background. It is highly recommended that you be located indoors with limited background noise and distractions.
- It is highly recommended to use a headset with a mic equipped.
- Join the meeting up to 15 minutes early.
- Prior to connecting, ensure your device (must be equipped with a camera, microphone, and speaker) is compatible with the Court’s remote appearance system by reviewing the FAQs. You can find the technology related requirements to appear remotely in our Remote Appearance User Guide.
- Please enter both your first and last name when joining the meeting. It is highly encouraged to also include your case number.
- Your case may not be heard at the time the calendar is scheduled to start.
The remote appearance confirmation email you receive will ONLY be valid for the hearing you are scheduled for. The conference ID, PIN, and/or link provided to you will not work if your matter is continued or has another hearing set. You will either need to schedule yourself or request a remote appearance for future hearings.
