The District of Columbia’s highest local court will live-stream video of oral arguments for the first time on June 17, the court announced Tuesday. A full sitting of the court is scheduled to hear an adoption case that day.
The D.C. Court of Appeals began streaming audio of all arguments in 2006. Chief Judge Eric Washington said in an email interview Tuesday that the court planned to video stream other en banc arguments, and expand the program to other arguments “when resources are available for additional technology.”
