This year's eCourts will be held in Las Vegas, Nevada, December 5-7 at the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino.
We are reaching out to the court community to identify session ideas that highlight progress and innovation and that will encourage teams of administrators, technologists, and judges to attend.
As most of you already know much of the "big technology news" for the first part of 2022 has been the announcements around "the metaverse".
While it is fun in many gaming situations, I think there is also a possibility of using it effectively in courtroom evidence presentations in the future. We discuss below how some versions might be useful in the courtroom.

Addressing the digital divide. Communicating scheduling changes. Providing legal information in layman’s terms on court websites. Managing the waiting room. Since the start of the pandemic, courts across the country have adapted their processes to allow for remote and virtual proceedings. Join us for the next discussion in a series of webinars focused on best practices for engaging with attorneys and self-represented litigants in remote and virtual hearings.
With news that jury trials are being delayed once again due to the Covid-19 pandemic, it is useful to resurrect some early court technology used by the Erie County Common Pleas Court, General Division in Sandusky, Ohio from the '70s and later.
The following is a report that my NCSC colleagues, Peggy A.
Walsh and Kevin P. Kilpatrick, Staff Associate published as part of the Court Technology Reports, 1990 publication available in PDF in our Library eCollection here.
If you read this article, please remember that this was done
in the time of analog (meaning tape) recording media and way before the internet
was generally available to the public and the courts. It is much easier to

We were curious as to the status of online court help to the self-represented litigants as a good 2021 year-end wrapup article for the CTB? We share what we found below.
In addition, we just learned of a new NIJ study on the use of Chatbots in the Criminal Justice System to add to our list of online helpers.
I stumbled across two outstanding articles on how to measure Access to Justice.
