Video Conference Request Form

Purpose:
The Video Conference program is designed to accommodate attorney-client interviews, video court appearances, probation investigations, treatment program assessments and more.
The VC unit is equipped with one video conference room, five interview booths and two mobile units. With adequate notice, the VC unit can accommodate virtually any video conference request that is related to the operation of the court.

Uses of the Video Conference System:

  • Video court appearances
  • Attorney-client interviews
  • Probation investigations
  • Cases involving state prisoners and out of state video conference requests at the direction of the court

Benefits of Video Conferencing:

  • Reduce the need to transport prisoners
  • More timely probation reports
  • Reduce overcrowding in court pens
  • More attorney-client contacts
  • Expedited treatment program assessments

Video Court Appearances:
Video court appearances are subject to the guidelines set down in CPL 182 and Part 106 of the Rules of the Court. Video court appearances are not authorized for hearings, trials and certain pleas.

Scheduling Video Conferences:
To arrange an interview you must submit an interview request form at least 72 hours prior to the interview.

Forms are available in the Kew Gardens Courthouse, Room 734.

Interviews will be scheduled for 30 minute intervals.

Forms can be submitted on-line.

Request for interviews with State prisoners or out of state prisoners must be made at least 2 weeks in advance and require a court order.

If an interpreter is required for the interview, the attorney is responsible for bringing their own interpreter.

Note: Family members are not permitted to act as interpreters.

Security:
To safeguard the attorney-client privilege, all VC equipment operates on secure lines prohibiting outside parties from intercepting information or making recordings of the interview.
