On June 30, 1997, the experiment, initiated in 1987, that gave
trial judges discretion to allow televised and still-camera
coverage of civil and criminal trial court proceedings in New York
State came to an end. After two years of investigation, a
12-member, state-appointed committee has issued its findings and
recommendations on the question of cameras in New York courts.
Their results are contained in An Open Courtroom. This book offers:
an introduction, executive summary; overview of the committee's
work; a summary of the current law; overview of camera laws in
other states and in federal courts; summary of the committee's
record; the committee's assessment and conclusions; recommendation;
appendices which include the results of a jurist poll and the
committee's judicial survey, interviews, and other pertinent data;
and a minority report/ dissent arguing against the committee's
recommendations.
