The Evolving Technology-Augmented Courtroom Before, During, And After The Pandemic, Fredric I. Lederer
Faculty Publications
Even before the COVID-19 Pandemic, technology was changing the nature of America’s courtrooms. Access to case management and e-filing data and documents coupled with electronic display of information and evidence at trial, remote appearances, electronic court records, and assistive technology for those with disabilities defined the technology-augmented trial courtroom.
