Canadian Centre for Court Technology Guidelines on Social Media in the Courtroom
Last week, the Canadian Centre for Court Technology (CCCT) held its Forum 2012 in Montreal.
The Centre brings together justice system partners such as the Canadian Judicial Council, the Canadian Bar Association and the Federal, Provincial and Territorial Deputy Ministers of Justice to look at how technology can improve the efficiency amd effectiveness of the court system in Canada.
At the meeting, the CCCT released Draft National Guidelines Regarding the Use of Electronic Communication Devices in Court Proceedings (Twitter, blogging etc.)
It also published a very useful compilation of existing court policies on the issue from across the country.
