Pursuant to Administrative Order No. 2020-16, the deadlines for filing documents with the Supreme Court and Court of Appeals will begin running again on June 8, 2020.
COA Oral Argument During the Pandemic
Until the Court returns to the traditional in-person arguments, the Court will continue to utilize Zoom for oral arguments on all cases where argument was preserved. Parties who are endorsed for argument will receive an invitation which includes a link to the Zoom session and instructions for participating. Recordings of all arguments are uploaded to the Court’s YouTube channel within 24 hours. Most Zoom oral argument sessions are not livestreamed. If you would like to view an argument live, contact the clerk’s office at least 24 hours prior to the argument date. The Court will continue to monitor events to determine when it is most appropriate to return to the courtrooms.
