RTDNA has launched a revised Cameras in the Courts State By State Guide to help journalists understand current court rules and procedures.

Nearly every state in the union has provisions to allow the media to use video cameras and microphones in courtrooms in some circumstances. In some, cameras are a routine sight at the trial court level. In others, on the state’s appellate courts or supreme court have cameras, operated by the courts themselves. For the members of the media, understanding the rules and procedures in your state is necessary to provide the best and most complete coverage of your government’s judicial branch in action.
