Conduct of attendees via remote access

• Remote access attendees are reminded that this hearing is a solemn court proceeding and therefore they must conduct themselves as if they were in a physical Courtroom
• Attendees must not interrupt the proceedings in any way
• Under no circumstances should an attendee take, or attempt to take, a ‘screenshot’, ‘screengrab’, photograph or any other method of capturing/preserving an image that appears over the video link nor make, or attempt to make, an audio video or other form of recording of these proceedings

The Pillar Room is functioning as a Courtroom for the duration of these proceedings.  The usual court conventions apply, including the following:

• No photography
• No audio recording
• No video recording
• No media interviews
• No media access to the adjacent family room

The Courtroom is located within an active hospital facility.  For the privacy of both patients and staff entering and leaving the hospital grounds, members of the media are instructed to confine their activities to outside the perimeter of the hospital site.

It is imperative that the media clear the Courtroom and grounds promptly at the conclusion of each days proceedings.

We thank the media for their cooperation in these matters.
