Local Rule Rule 5073-2: REMOTE ACCESS TO PROCEEDINGS
Bankr. S.D.N.Y. — General rule
Rule 5073-2 REMOTE ACCESS TO PROCEEDINGS Access by parties, parties in interest and the public to proceedings before the Court will be governed by the revised policy, effective September 22, 2023, of the Judicial Conference of the United States, which provides that "a judge presiding over a civil or bankruptcy non-trial proceeding may, in the judge's discretion, authorize live remote public audio access to any portion of that proceeding in which a witness is not testifying." Further information on the policy is available at the following link: Judicial Conference Policy. Pursuant to that policy, courtrooms will be open and, where applicable, remote access may be provided to parties and parties in interest for access to hearings and trials, and public access may be provided to the extent permitted by the Judicial Conference policy. Access to proceedings may be limited by other statutes and rules, including without limitation section 107 of the Bankruptcy Code, Rule 9018 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and Rule 615 of the Federal Rules of Evidence. Each Judge's policies regarding remote access to proceedings will be set forth in such Judge's chambers rules.
