Just click on “Contact Us” on the right-hand side of this page and send us a note about what you did. What case do you want to cover? Who is the judge, the defense lawyer, the prosecuting lawyer? When did you apply? What did your letter say?
Then follow up with the response of the court. What was allowed and what was denied?
If we can make an entry for each application we’ll be able to track how often expanded coverage is requested, how often it is allowed, and we’ll have an idea of which judges have approved expanded coverage for which cases.
In addition we all can go to school on the experience of others. We can learn how to write a request letter, what information is important, etc.
Finally, we’d love to hear how the arrangement worked. What kind of equipment was used for sound — for photos — for video? How was it shared among all the media? What went right and what went wrong?
Looking forward to hearing from you as we get closer to July 1, 2011.
