Broadcasting of federal court trials hits a snag

By Lori Bauman

ADVERTISEMENTS

The Ninth Circuit's plan to allow broadcasting of non-jury civil trials was curtailed today when the U.S. Supreme Court temporarily blocked an order to stream video of the California gay marriage trial both live to courthouses across the country, and on a delayed basis on You Tube.  Shortly before the start of trial in San Francisco on the constitutionality of the state's gay marriage ban, the Supreme Court ordered that the broadcast must be limited to rooms within the court house, and barred posting on You Tube.

The Supreme Court's order is in effect until Wednesday and is subject to "further consideration" by the Court.

See further coverage of the order here and here.  See our earlier post on the Ninth Circuit's experimental program to broadcast trials here.
