RE:             April 24 Webinar: Using Zoom Tools During a Virtual Courtroom Proceeding

In light of the increased use of Zoom technology to safely conduct court proceedings, the State Court Administrative Office–Judicial Information Services, Court Services, and the Michigan Judicial Institute will host a live webinar on Friday, April 24 at 10:00 a.m. (ET).

The webinar will demonstrate how to use Zoom Tools during virtual court proceedings. Webinar attendees will see a judge and host conduct virtual court proceedings using Zoom Tools to manage the experience and participants to ensure the proceedings run smoothly. A question-and-answer segment will be held after the demonstration, so if you have questions about parts of the Zoom interface, this will be an opportunity to address them.
