Judicial engagement and AV links: judicial perceptions from Australian courts. Issue 1 (2nd January 2019) - Wallace, Anne
ABSTRACT: Use of technology significantly impacts the nature of judicial work. While audio-visual ("AV") links may generate some efficiencies, the increasing use of this technology conflicts with other important developments, notably procedural justice and therapeutic jurisprudence, which recognise and valorise the interactive nature of judicial work, especially sentencing in criminal cases. Analysing judicial perceptions of AV use in courts creates a clearer picture of its benefits and disadvantages, particularly in light of expectations of direct personal engagement.
