LOOK, NO BIBLE
Your next remote CVP (cloud video platform) may be a bit different if civil, family and tribunal judges and the occasional magistrate, along with staff, follow the new script which has been issued to them. A possible smack across the mouse for failure to introduce; reminders to be in a quiet and private area, mobiles and other distractors to be off, hearing being recorded, no personal recording or publication, serious nature of importance of hearing not changed by video conduct; enquiry as to whether everyone can hear clearly; chat function to be used to notify any technical issues; everyone playing to state name and role (should bring out the worse in non-mol respondents); place yourself on mute when not speaking; and avoid talking over another party (but, curiously, not another party’s lawyer). But as Melanie might observe ‘Look what they’ve done to my oath, ma.’
