August 14, 2023 Meeting (Open)

June 28, 2023, Action by Email

Proposed action by email between meetings under rule 10.75(o) to consider whether to amend the FY 2023-24 IT Modernization Funding Program list of approved projects to include the “Televic Conferencing System for Courtrooms” project submitted by Superior Court of San Francisco County. In accordance with California Rules of Court, rule 10.75(o)(1)(B), public notice is hereby given that the Judicial Council Technology Committee proposes to act by email between meetings on Wednesday, July 5 at 9:00 a.m.

Background
At its public meeting on June 20, 2023, the Technology Committee approved the IT Modernization Funding Program project list for Fiscal Year 2023-24 as recommended by the Information Technology Advisory Committee (ITAC). The relevant materials p. 5-12 included the program requirements, review process, and recommendations.

Included in the project list, the Superior Court of San Francisco County proposed a remote proceedings project entitled: Televic Conferencing System for Courtrooms that requests funding to update/modernize the microphone conferencing systems for one courtroom in each of two locations as a proof of concept. This project was not included in the recommendations provided by ITAC because it was unclear if the proposed solution aligned with branch standards/guidelines. However, at its meeting, Technology Committee members discussed this project at the request of the council CIO, Heather Pettit. Ms. Pettit confirmed the project’s alignment with program requirements and branchwide direction related to modernizing courtrooms to enable remote proceedings. Members concluded that this project should be included in the list of approved projects. Unfortunately, an amendment to the list of project recommendations was not included in the motion approved during the meeting. Due to lack of time and member availability, the Chair determined to vote by an action by email.   

Proposed Action
The committee will consider amending the FY 2023-24 IT Modernization Funding Program list of approved projects to include the “Televic Conferencing System for Courtrooms” project submitted by the Superior Court of San Francisco County.

Written Comment
In accordance with California Rules of Court, rule 10.75(o)(2), written comments pertaining to the proposed action may be submitted before the Judicial Council Technology Committee acts on the proposal. For this specific meeting, comments should be e-mailed to jctc@jud.ca.gov. Only written comments received by Wednesday, July 5 at 9:00 a.m. will be provided to advisory body members.
