Video Court Tips

  1. Logistics
  2. Your Environment
  • To appear by video, you will need a device with an internet connection, video camera and microphone (or a headset with microphone)
  • Please check your device at this link prior to the hearing: https://zoom.us/test
  • Be sure that your username for the video (Zoom) hearing is the same as the name on the hearing notice you received from the court
  • Join the video session 15 minutes before the scheduled hearing time; If you arrive late, you will end up waiting longer.
  • Keep yourself muted until the court asks you to speak (mute/unmute yourself by clicking on the microphone icon)
  • If you get dropped from the session, please join again.
  • If a language interpreter is present, be aware that they might interrupt from time to time to clarify who is speaking
