LACourtConnect extends to LASC Appellate Division

SUPERIOR COURT OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY TO EXPAND LACOURTCONNECT REMOTE APPEARANCE PLATFORM TO APPELLATE DIVISION AND ADDITIONAL CRIMINAL COURTHOUSES

Appellate Division Goes Live June 12; Second Phase of Criminal Rollout Begins June 16

The Superior Court of Los Angeles County will continue the phased rollout of LACourtConnect (LACC), the Court’s free technology platform for remote courtroom appearances. The platform will launch in the Appellate Division on June 12, with expansion to additional Criminal courtrooms beginning June 16. LACC is a user-friendly, modern platform that allows attorneys and litigants to attend court hearings virtually using Microsoft Teams without needing advanced registration.

Appellate Division –  June 12

Starting June 12, remote appearances in the Appellate Division will be conducted via LACourtConnect. Users may access the platform by visiting the LACC welcome page.  Key information: • Oral argument dates are posted here. • Parties will be served with a “Notice Setting Cause for Hearing” with their specific hearing date and time. • Participants wishing to appear remotely must test their equipment before the hearing and log in at least 15 minutes early. Both audio and video are required. Failure to appear when the case is called will result in a waiver of oral argument, and the appeal will be submitted on the brief(s) of the non-appearing party or parties.
